I think its time to start a new thread, regarding investments that everyone can make to
profit from the upcoming massive unemployment of newbie daytraders.

Lets see.. Unemployment benefits, no, thats already cornered by the government.

Hmm.. Ok, I've got it. Can anyone point me to public companies that deal with the
following?

1) 1-900 Suicide hotlines?

2) Drug companies that sell depression medications (prozac, zoloft)

3) Bars

4) Alcohol distributors

5) HMOs with large exposure to psychiatry or psychotherapy

(these are in addition to shorting virtually every technology and brokerage stock)

General question for the thread - who is the best broker to use to short these tulips? I have been using Datek, but the best internet candidates are either not shortable or not marginable.
