You rarely hear ANYONE, ANYWHERE, talk about re-installing the
short sale uptick rule, which was part of the markets for many
years. It was gotten rid of prior to the 2008 crash and by
not having it the algo's and robo's can just continue to short from
there computer programs. Maybe I'm missing something but I
suspect the swings in each direction would not be so violent if
this was still in place. Just a thought.
short sale uptick is way beyond where we are now with all the
financial products that have been created with little oversight.
This may make the problem with credit default swaps seem
small.
I don't think shorts are driving the market down, it's unwinding
of complacency that was built up so long, liquidation than than
anything vs short selling
