Tomas, good article.

"Last year, the longs got screwed. This year we'll screw the shorts."

It is all not just money, but also the primordial sense of justice, the urge of revenge and vindication that unites and moves OPEC. Didn't
the Saudi Arabia vowed to punish shorts a year ago?
Investing should be a fair business, but as it is now..... it is the Hell's best invention.. Shorts benefit from weakening and destruction of companies, just think what this means in practice.. a hellishly immoral activity where the most ugliest, most despicable acts are perceived as the most proper ones because they are most profitable.
Their the very best feat is to short and slander a company, to scare away its investors, to wreck its stock to "no support" when the company is defenseless being in a quiet period.. Truly sick..
