Yep, you got it. I have to work MUCH harder on my shorts. It's a sickening feeling to watch your short go on a bull rampage. One of the easier shorts were the cell phone makers a couple years back. When I noticed they were GIVING away cell phones with a pack of cigs or a tank of gas, I shorted Motorola and Nokia. Motorola was having other problems that were plain to see too (chips-in particular APPLE chips!) Another easy one was shorting everybody and anybody who depended on Apple for their business. Shorted Avid, INSGNY, etc. for HUGE gains about 2 years back. Never did short Apple oddly enough.
