Legal shorting of actual shares is healthy for the market.
Without it a group, including ownership, could control the price higher than it should be and thereby fool the market at least for a while.

The problem is naked shorting, and the fact is that our system is so corrupt that it cannot be controlled. That is to say, it cannot be controlled without some extreme measures forced upon those who write and enforce the rules.

The market is so profitable that those that could do this have no incentive. So we just try to be smart and work with it. Just my opinion for what it's worth.

If you don't have instincts, get out. If you do, go with them.
