US ban on shorting

Shorting is not a sin. It is like any other tools that are available in the Markets - viz.  hedging, option-tradings, warrants, futures ... etc.......

Naked Shorting maybe undesirable but it doesn't happen very often!

If the States want to ban shorting, it might as well shut down the Streets! Cheers!

 

What do you think will happen 30 days later when the US ban on shorting those few stocks is lifted?

I believe it is the perfect setup for a crash.
