>>Wouldn't this make EBAY an excellent short?<,
Mike anyone that shorts one of Williams core holdings is nuts.:-)
A hedge is different but with such a small float that doesn't make sense. Shorting would be too risky and a sucker play.

re: Wouldn't this make EBAY an excellent short?

If you had anything worthwhile to sell, say you expected $50+ for this item... would you even consider anybody but Ebay? Don't people here think online auctions are a sticky business model? Once the leader is determined - and that happened a while ago with ebay - it seems like it will be almost impossible for an also-ran to make headway.
