  • Nine Actionable Calls  [View article]
    Not too sure about BofA.. They have a following that seems to forgive them everything.. Kinda like AAPL or MSFT. And I do think the bailouts will keep coming.

    It would seem to me that a better choice to short would be those companies that are 'hanging in the breeze' with no govenment safety net available. I'd be looking at REITS.. Preferably those with debt due later this year and that have a big diviidend that they'll have to cut sometime. Or maybe retailers now that XMas is over and they'll have to face the fact that the big sales season is over and there aren't any more buyers.... Maybe a homebuilder if they aren't already chock-a-block with shorts...

    You can do a scan and then head over to 'shortsqueeze.com' to see who's shorted heavily and who isn't... I'd also take a look at the option activity for a few months out.... You really donp;t want to be holding a short on options expiration day..

    Good article.. Thx jegan
