Shorting is a negative function. I don't short stocks and it seems that you don't either. However, options, day trading, holding an investment as well as shorting are all legal and part of the game. Some folks like playing the other side, and that is their prerogative.
I agree. That is exactly what short sellers are. Narcissistic individuals who think they're the only one who know.
Ones who don't listen to anyones opinion or logic when it comes to knowing about a stock. They put down others who present logical reasons for a situation. Many are activists, who coordinate their efforts.
