THE TOPIC IS SHORTING - AND THE FACT THAT NO SIGNIFICANT HESG SHORT EXISTS.
JUST A LACK OF KNOWLEDGE.

THE KNOWLEDGE IS AVAILABLE IN THE IBOX

READ THE Rule 200(g) of Regulation SHO requires a broker-dealer to mark sell orders in any equity security as "long" or "short." Rule 200 defines a short sale as "any sale of a security which the seller does not own or any sale which is consummated by the delivery of a security borrowed by, or for the account of, the seller." Rule 200(g)(1) provides that "[a]n order to sell shall be marked "long" only if the seller is deemed to own the security being sold pursuant to paragraphs through (f) of this section and either: (i) The security to be delivered is in the physical possession or control of the broker or dealer; or (ii) It is reasonably expected that the security will be in the physical possession or control of the broker or dealer no later than the settlement of the transaction.
