Folks,
A few days ago on Fast Money, I saw a chart of the Karachi Stock Index which showed what happened when the government of Pakistan imposed a ban on short selling (the index fell a lot further in the subsequent months).
Does anyone have that image or a link to it? I want to e-mail it to a colleague as a sort of proof that banning short selling will not prop up stock markets.
Please post that image/link to image in this thread if you have it.
Thanks !!
Edit: DUH!! Should have used the search function. Got it:
