Short selling along with actual selling is the market's way of rating a company.
e.g. You go long because you're optimistic. I disagree and go short.
Problems occur when speculation, manipulation, insiders or large trades affect the market. These imperfections need to be addresses by the authorities to level the playing field.
Good luck, but in cases like Kier bottom fishing is always done at great risk unless you know what you're doing.
