All the video game and tech stocks are tanking :beli:

I think I should cop more Take Two and add ATVI to my portfolio.

Do you short stocks? I'm never bold enough to actually do it, even when I really think a stock would tank like movie pass when it was going through it.
yes i do. but GE is a special case, i've been shorting them since january. and they haven't let me down yet. i also buy some calls on them when i feel it's appropriate, for example now i have some $8.50 calls, $9 because i'm not an expert at this shyt and while i've been profiting big time on GE's ride down this year, there has to be a bottom and it will eventually have to start rising again. i also buy spreads to balance my risk.

I am wondering if I should exit my short of SQ or stay the course. I am up 10k at this point and thinking some news will come to try to beef it back up.
