Stocks with the Largest Short Positions

The approach of buying stocks with the biggest short positions is interesting if you sweat the details of what makes them a buy when the professionals think they are a sell.

You will get a nice rally in them if the market rallies. This is an easy play in a bull market, and an early stage bear market.

However is the teeth of a secular bear, it looks like buying a home in the path of a tsunami.

C is too big to fail? Watch, and be amazed. They will be tossing the common shareholders overboard faster than you can say "Yikes!"
