Sec....This scenario is EXACTLY what I was refering to the other day about shorting a stock only to find it gaps up overnight or over the weekend, never to return...Of course, we don't know about the 'never to return' part yet....Shorting is foolish as I see it...Money is to be made on the upside, for sure...downside is questionable, especially with big, successful companies......For a "burn" like you've never seen just try shorting an internet stock and catch it wrong...You'll spin your wheels for a long time trying to recover from a financial fiasco......And shorting AOL, about to be crowned a Gorilla....that's not well thought out, IMO.
