Top Short Stocks 2012 - Short Stock Picks 2012 - 2012 Stocks to Short

What stocks should I short in 2012?  This is a question that has been asked many times over the past six months.  Below is a list of my top short ideas for 2012 and some of the most expensive and bad stocks that are trading in 2012.  Keep in mind, shorting a stock requires a margin account and if you plan to hold over a long period of time, you will be charged interest to borrow the shares.  Shorting a stock only let's you make a 100% return while you can lose more than 100% if the stock you short goes against you and you fail to cover.  I will only short a stock if it breaks to a new 52 week low.  This trading method has been proven to work time after time.  Buy stocks that are hitting highs, short stocks that are hitting new lows.  Using this trading tactic can make you a boat load of money without holding a stock and risking your captial for a long period of time.  Let's face it, investing in the stock market is risky but can give you a better return than a bank.
