You may well be right about COF (and a number of others in the sector) being ripe for shorting. As of yet I have not resurrected the core shorts and probably will not do so until AG shows some sign of losing control of the markets. Until then, I think swing shorts are too dangerous and pose more risk than reward even though I am chomping at the bit and frothing at the mouth over some of them. What I keep telling myself is that once I have confirmation that the trend is down, there will still be tons of room on the downside for most of these stocks so I will not cry over missing the very top.
