when your desire to seek out objective truth is overwhelmed by the need to see your meme stonk go higher, that's a sign you're starting to develop a brain problem. Ive been very forthcoming about my motivations and reasoning here.

the answer isn't that naked shorting doesn't happen because it's illegal it's that the financial incentive to do so has been eliminated by the SEC sitting on their asses and Central banks injecting a fuckload of liquidity every single day, and ramping it up if the market ever gets sad

if this were true there'd be nobody shorting at all, never mind nakedly

if Warren could somehow finagle this into getting increased regulations on wall st that would be great; if you want to give benefit of the doubt she misread the whole situation and saw this as an opportunity to do that.

I guess that ship sailed a decade ago, though.

No, covered shorting (the kind nobody's doing) owns. "Hey this company sucks here's why." is an important part of price discovery.

nah. shorting should be allowed by retail traders, but not hedge funds. the stocks that can be shorted should also be heavily restricted, too. of course, all short positions should also be published daily because then people can look and say "nah, dipshit, this company is definitely worth more than that, BUY BUY BUY". the ostensible purpose of the stock market is to determine the true value of a company via aggregate decision making (Twitch Buys Stocks), but that means no trader should be too big or powerful since their opinion/buying patterns will move the needle too much.

in a stock market with freer information shorting can help to prevent companies from overstating their abilities, like when China legalized the shorting of specific companies (large companies with a shitload of stock whose price couldn't be readily abused) and by specific traders that passed financial qualifications, a finance knowledge battery, a risk assessment battery, and weren't affiliated with large financial firms.

then write an article about it or go on the news or whatever. profiting on the movement of stocks based on "hey this company sucks" serves no useful societal purpose
