      Disclosures: The Long / Short Dual Standard
      The article talks about 'short selling', not 'NAKED short selling'. There's a huge difference. Naked short selling is illegal and involves selling shares you not own and have not 'borrowed' from a broker.

      There is nothing wrong with short selling and a short seller is as much a capitalist as any long buyer... and probably richer as he or she is likely making money on both sides of the market. ;)

      I also agree that people should be more skeptical of analyst recommendations. There is always an ulterior motive.
