I’ve never shorted a stock before, but this is looking like a solid play.
Looks like it's finally time to bite the bullet and watch the big short.
If you really haven't... you need to. Better yet read the book. It should be required reading in America to see how the financial institutions fucked over America in 2008 and most of them got away with it or got the government to pay for it's mismanagement, while a LOT of people got saddled with absolutely awful loans because all that mattered was creating and selling new debt.
