<<As far as shorting; why the Oilpatch ? Risk vs. reward-wise - certainly much, much better candidates in the overall marketplace imho ? I don't understand shorting near bottoms and buying in on momenteum near tops ? There are plays on the Dollar/Yen, High value/PE plays; the Internet-Tech valuation/earnings ''insanity'' etc...>> While I'm not short OS stocks, I can certainly understand shorting here as opposed to the internets -- truly the world's most dangerous game.
