Never short a stock.. that has a float less that 5 million shares. Regarding CBMI, if you own a house that has been worth $100,000 for a year and one week it's worth $500,000 and you look at the history of housing prices, and you notice that the prices never maintain their exuberant levels without sell-off... would you be tempted to sell your house at say $500,000 and buy it again at $250,000 or lower in a week? Or would you be willing to hold that house hoping that the price will continue to rise? Perhaps you will need to wait a year or two? Long-term investing is great, but stocks that go straight up that won't earn money for more than a year are dangerous. That's all I'll say. Good luck on Tuesday what ever you do.
