alt Hacker News> Seems odd that they don't discuss a common reason to short a stock: you expect it to go down, without any real opinion on the business.
The reverse is true for meme stocks as well. You can buy a stock because you expect it to go up without any real opinion on the business.
Though we all know the opinion on the business. Great science project, bad business.
We all know that but people will attack you with „nobody can get a payload to the orbit cheaper”. Yeah, nobody can, and there’s limited need for that.
