<<An alternative to shorting is selling naked calls, esp if you can't find shares to short>>

Bad advice.

This market should not be shorted into. I'm having trouble understanding why so many people insist on diving in right now. There will be plenty of better opportunities in the future.

Patience, patience, patience.

If shorting stock is a bad thing to do right now, selling naked calls is downright disastrous. The fact that it is extremely difficult to borrow stock nowadays should ring some alarm bells.

This market is going considerably higher.
