Shorting multinationals is a great idea. The problem is that these guys have a lot of backers and may rise too fast too much and if you are not careful about it you can be whipped out (there is no such thing as "cash" short account). Can someone with experience in shorting tell us how they manage to keep their skin attached when trying to balance longer terms fundamentals with shorter term sentiments?
