InfoStream.com--I don't know any pure shorters out there in the market. Been told they exist but all the really good shorts I have ever known do very good DD. They will use that DD to go long too.
I agree with Lee and you that the real pros are not getting getting hurt by this long bull market. The scams tend to just go higher. I also find that when I check short interest on a given stock the shorts are out there. I for one wish they weren't so populous. I might could get shares in some of the dogs I target.
All the Best

There are short funds? Surviving? <g>
It's just a sliding scale that you adjust to froth....
Two years ago, a 100% gainer was a target and 300% was a 'lock'.
A year ago, I learned that 300% was a normal spike and there was no 'lock'. Froth.....
Now shorting is intraday, if it is up 400% on the year and it takes a 25% jump....just maybe.....
Definitely a time for the nimble because there is no 'right'
