Shorting should be outlawed by congress. The old rational that it provides liquidity is sheer nonsense. What it does is allow someone who does not own the product to greatly influence it’s possible. If one does not own it they should not be allowed to manipulate the stock. It is the MO of hedge funds and other wall street criminals to fleece retailers and they do everything they can to keep the Mets under their control, and shorting is one of their trump cards, no pun intended. You think criminal activity is rare on wall street???Have s look @ 2008 and the financial crisis. To my knowledge few if any of the criminals who cost the world economy trillions have ever gone to jail. Legislation is desperately needed.
