Posted by: lapuckfan on Oct 25, 17:53 in response to Flash's post Here's some additional thoughts on Shorting....

think of it in terms of a wager...if you "short" a stock, you are betting against it...if you "long" a stock, you betting on it.

Really, when you "short" a stock, you are selling shares that you don't own yet, and when you "cover" you are buying the shares you previously shorted
