Are Short Sellers to Blame for the Financial Crisis?
[View article]
Andrew, I like this discloser idea. I have no problems with shorting. But I think the problem is a group of hedgefunds ganging up on a company stock one at a time. What's gonna happen this week? Hedgie #1 calls hedgie #2 who calls #3. Hey George, It sucks that we can't short the financials,so lets You me and fred mess with GM on monday and Ford on thursday Ba on friday etc........
"The SEC is also considering an emergency order forcing hedge funds, which employ short selling as part of their trading styles that have a $100 million portfolio to report their short positions daily. The implicit threat is: We will know who you are (The SEC already knows about long positions.)."
