Thanks, another printable answer.
I can see why shorts do a lot of research. The danger is huge, if the person is wrong and the stock goes up, it can go up to anything.
I havent shorted yet (except BOST this morning by mistake when I sold it in the wrong account!) Wish I'd shorted Bost instead of buying it!!!!
Its an interesting way to make money though, because some of these companies'prices, often after an IPO are absolutely ridiculously high.
