Introduction Compact

This is a thread to discuss short-selling in a civil and informative way. Because short-selling produces much rancor, this is a moderated thread and I will allow absolutely no insulting language of any type.

If opponents of the current short-selling regulations wish to express themselves here, they will do so with reason and politeness. That goes for anyone else too.

Most of all I am starting this thread as a depository of articles and information regarding short-selling.
