Shorting on basis of valuation is often dangerous, unless you are very sure that business model is crock and you have patience and deep pockets. Since I have neither, I do not look solely at valuation. Shorts really make money when psychology turns. It is often guesswork as to when that will happen, but charts and response to news is often critical. For example, biotech fell apart in the spring with the Clinton-Blair edict about free dissemination of information. That was a good example of a telling response by the market. Next month will speak volumes, agree there with Greg.
