The shorting of stock is said to provide liquidity to the market, but the same abuses that potentially could happen to these financial stocks happens regularly to juniors.
Now that the system is working against the professional market manipulators they wish to change the rules again at least temporarily.
To me the shorting of stocks is legalized and unregulated gambling and the practice of short selling the tsock of a company should be stopped.
All of thes weapons of mass financial destruction have resulted in illiqudity and obviously much worse ... I said before this situation wil be known as the greater depression ... the big banks did not go down in the 30s ....
The idea of selling futures when it comes to commodities makes sense, but there really is no justfiable reason to allow a gamble on the price of a company going down.
