Short Selling IPO's

Has anyone ever had a broker which allows them to short IPO's? Its damn rare to find a broker who can permit this cause they'll need to have access to shares for loan so you can do this.

Most of the time I've found that IPO's always fall significantly within the first cpl hours of trading so you can make a nice little profit on the short side if you can bloody well short the damn things!

Re: Short Selling IPO's

That actually seems like a really good idea if you are of the persuasion.
