0:26 The fact that he says he started on Wall St "after graduating from college" makes me respect him...he could have VERY EASILY said "after graduating from Yale." Obviously a very intellectually secure guy.
I've always gotten that vibe from him. he seems like a guy I could sit down with and he would listen to my ideas and then calmly and objectively tell me why I might be right or wrong. I absolutely love listening to him speak.
He made a good point. It's always good to have alternative views. Yet I would remain caution as he cautioned. Herd mentality works both ways regardless of long or short.
Jim Chanos, a short player, started out his firm with his and his family's own money = US$1.5-2MM. Today (2018), he along with his family is a self-made billionaire... which is absolutely impressive!
Jim, a reinforcement is anything that increases the likelihood of a certain behavior to continue; whereas a "punishment" terminates the behavior. The "positive" and "negative" terms only refer to the "adding" or "subtracting" from the environment...and not "good" or "bad" as you state. I wrote an article for SFO magazine in March 2006 on why going short is so hard. I agree with you that traders view it incorrectly; but differ in why that is.
Short selling is regulated in most jurisdictions. You can look up an article on Investopedia (RUclips does not allow to post links in video comments) that will be helpful.

When it comes to China, there are only two views and two groups of people. The pro and anti China people will always pick on things that support their point of view. So the big divide takes on an ideological bent. The anti-China camp has so far been proven wrong again and again.

Of course he's going to suggest China's debt is greater than European and the U.S.! His firm specializes with shorting! China's market is huge, he wants to drive it down

Yeah there is a lot of arrogance out there. There are guys not nearly successful who brag about their schools.
