I don't think shorting is the issue. To me CYDY is a terrible stock to short. Typically you want to short stocks that are way overvalued and have more room to go down than up. CYDY is not overvalued it is undervalued even if you have a negative view of the company. Plus, as been discussed before most trading platforms won't even let you short CYDY or any OTC for that matter. I know was mentioned before overseas platforms will let folks short. But seems like a lot of trouble to me.
