| Sometimes I really can’t get the reasons for people taking some actions, and this is supposed to be my future occupation. So, I feel rather unsure about what is going to be my job tomorrow. What can you tell me about people doing shorting and, mostly, what's happening when you short a stock? Is there some general set of events? |

| I think that the main point is to delay some payments. At this particular matter, it is all about taxation and its demands, so people tend to rush into this short a stock action, sometimes too hastily. I have seen many people doing lots of stupid things just over fear that something is going to go wrong. And if you are dealing with stocks, you have to be ready to take a risk, that’s what I think! |
