You can look at it that way. You'll get creamed, but you can look at it that way. A better way to look at it is as a method of passive income that has grown ever more important as interest rates cease to reward savers in any meaningful way. Monetary policy is such that your government is deliberately fucking you if you expect to be able to put your money in a savings account and expect to live off of it in the future. That's one perspective, anyway. Me? I hate shorting. Perhaps it's because I short things because I hate them, not because I actually have any real insight into their performance. Bet you haven't heard this one before. (link is dead; here's the content)
