I will admit I made a few bucks over the last few weeks. Most of it on the "short" side. It is hard *not* to revel in one's success, even when it comes at the expense of others (so to speak). Before you condem it as unAmerican though...
Have you ever jumped for joy when you were on the long side of a short squeeze?
The sword cuts from both sides.
That is why I watch the market and listen to the clues it gives about where it's going. I short when its going down and am long when its going up. I'm not always right... but then who is?
