Shorting28 Jun 2023 09:39
Personally, I think that shorting a stock is a wicked practice. It's like kicking somone when they're down, or tripping someone up who's already disabled. It's not British. In the past, I've witnessed how the shorts will hang on for months (even years), waiting for that cash flow crisis when the banks say NO and stock has sunk so low that a rights issue is impossible. The shorts hang on like crab lice. Ocado is now top of the league with shorts. Precarious.
