I can remember in 2000 that bloggers on heavily shorted tech stocks boards told everyone to put their shares in cash account so they couldn't be shorted.
Continuing Government regs is going to prop this market up any way they can in the short term.
It is slightly more difficult to bet against financials in simple manner since options are always time dependent and carry premimum.
Investors betting against US equities will find a way to bypass these restictions
