Interesting article about short-selling in the Dec 1 New Yorker [pp.42]...The SEC is starting a study that might restrict some of the more onerous S-sellig rules. That's the "good" news. The bad news is that a few years ago the Malaysian finance minister proposed that "caning" would be the proper punishnment for those caught selling-short. 'Course, the SEC may adopt the Mayalysion proposal. Ouch!
