Patricia: There is nothing wrong being a short seller. As a matter of fact it could be a good thing for the shareholders. About a week ago I sold GM shares short, day trade for 1 point gain which represents $ 1K gain. GM shares were pounded and the directors should get mad at GM CEO, a wake up call. Either straighten his act or get fired. Short selling accelerates that change for shareholders. Just imagine about Enron. If Ken Lay and his group were fired long time before its collapse, maybe the company could be saved and employees did not have to be spoonfed by Kenneth Lay's lies. All of my shorts are done in my charitable trust account.
