Honestly I couldn't short it anyways. It takes a special type of mentality to short and I can't do it. I tried once, I shorted 100 shares of BRCM 20 years ago at around $280. Within a week it was $300 and I ate my 2000 dollar loss thinking what will I do if it never stops going up. Within a month or so the market crashed and soon BRCM was below 50, and I couldn't believe how dumb I'd been. I've never even thought of shorting again.
