As a general rule, shorting is obviously much more

As a general rule, shorting is obviously much more risky than investing. My friend's point was that, based on the $0.00 crash outcome of USGN and the similarities with PR from many of the same leadership, he thought that the risk of shorting QTMM was reasonably low and with potential. He didn't suggest that I short or that he would. He was making the point to say that I should sell and not buy more.
