Annette: Same reason I wouldn't short AMZN, YHOO, NAVR, DBCC, ONSL, EBAY, BCST and etc.

If you short these issues it is twice the gamble of betting on a long play. You will NEVER catch me as a short in an Inet issue. God help those that do.

Annette:

Technically, there is no limit at what you can lose with a short. At least with a long buy, the most you can lose is what you put in.
