Original Message
Watching all these threads focusing on the current and potential for the drop in stocks... It would seem a good time to go short on a lot of stocks.
If lots of people do this...
1. Could it create greater financial losses for companies, leading to greater drops in stock - and this becoming a self perpetuating cycle of stock plunges?
2. Is it possible that if lots of people do this - the money won't even be there to give the people the profit they make off of going short on stock?
