Scott,

Re: Thinly traded stock.

One potential problem with shorting common stock which is thinly traded (eg. 1500 shares per day) is that you may be forced to buy them back (at a loss) if the original owner wants them back right away.

Is this a rare situation or one which would make me avoid shorting thinly traded issues?

Just wondering.

Ted
