Cris Cox (SEC Chairman) has temporarily suspended the practice of selling
short on Wall Street as of this morning. Good move.

Too bad it was he who did away with the long standing "Uptick Rule" last
year that banned naked short selling.
He did so as an "experiment" to see if the rule, in place since 1938, was
really necessary.

The results of his experiment are obvious.
