Banning short selling seems like interesting twist in the rules of the game in the middle of the play. Do you think that would now ignite the fire-crackers under the hedge fund stack with this if they are not able to play both sides and reconcile positions? would be a change of place moving it from under banks/brokerages with probably same end result. I have been wondering how these creatures managed to stay unaffected through this mess without many blowing up, but looks like the govt is coming through, 8000 to squat, so little time :-) we will revert to the mean
