A friend sent me a link to a recording of an interview that was on the ABC recently about Short Selling.
I have been surprised by the global knee-jerk reaction of banning short selling. It strikes me as simply caused by confusion and misunderstanding. Now is the time when people SHOULD be considering using short selling … not stopped from doing it.
In the Interview, you will hear Sinclair Davidson talk about some of the misunderstandings. It makes for an interesting listen!!
By the way, on one thing I totally disagree with Mr Davidson. I firmly believe that everybody should have access to the education and the ability to invest in whatever way they want. I do NOT believe that certain investing methods and techniques should be excluded from people and only allowed to be used by so-called professionals. Evereyone has a responsibility for looking after their own investments and they should be able to use whatever strategies they want … and they should also be allowed to learn how best to use those strategies.
Anyway, … here’s the link to the interview … I hope you enjoy it and learn something from it too!
