David,

I would agree 100% that shorting MSFt is dangerous. MSFT is classified as a "Cult Stock" and therefore the movement and dynamics of the stock is much harder to predict. You dont have to short a stock to speculate on it. Shorting is just one of the most aggressive forms of speculation.

Unfortunately some individuals on this board seem to think that only penny stocks are speculated. They seem to believe that Blue Chips like MSFT are not speculated. Too bad they dont live in the real world.

Ohh well, like I said, I predict the stock will drop tomorrow. You can all laugh at me tomorrow if I'm wrong (Im sure you all will if I am wrong).
