Shorts/Longs it doesnt really matter that much. How to decide if YOU like the company based on your own DD and not someone elses thoughts: Look at a company's fundamentals, history, trends, momentum, current market conditions, variables, street thoughts (Analysts). Design an intelligent investment strategy around this criteria. Go long and short, whatever the criteria calls for. BOTH positions are viable mechanisms to make money. Never get caught up in the majority, most people are followers and not leaders therefore much of the time the minority may actually have the correct take. Clear before the closing bell if you have garnered at least 5% profit or momentum looks to be fizzling. Seasoned traders realize that there is absolutely no reason to leave money on the table-- when a stock is losing gains Never subscribe to masochism, know when to cut your losses!
