Should Short Selling Be Banned?

In this video, I critically analyze the debate surrounding the potential banning of short selling. This discourse aims to provide a balanced perspective on the implications and misconceptions associated with short selling. My objective is not to convince but to present key arguments, enabling viewers to form their own informed opinions. The discussion encompasses the differentiation between wanting a company to fail versus believing it will fail, the impact of short selling on market dynamics, and the phenomena of short squeezes. By examining these facets, I aim to clarify why short selling should not be banned.
