The uptick rule is a trading restriction that states that short selling a stock is only allowed on an uptick. For the rule to be satisfied, the short must be either at a price above the last traded price of the security, or at the last traded price when the most recent movement between traded prices was upward (i.e. the security has traded below the last-traded price more recently than above that price).
The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) defined the rule, and summarized it: "Rule 10a-1(a)(1) provided that, subject to certain exceptions, a listed security may be sold short (A) at a price above the price at which the immediately preceding sale was effected (plus tick), or (B) at the last sale price if it is higher than the last different price (zero-plus tick). Short sales were not permitted on minus ticks or zero-minus ticks, subject to narrow exceptions."
The rule went into effect in 1938 and was removed when Rule 201 Regulation SHO became effective in 2007. In 2009, the reintroduction of the uptick rule was widely debated, and proposals for a form of its reintroduction by the SEC went into a public comment period on 2009-04-08. A modified form of the rule was adopted on 2010-02-24.
Bankers have been debating bringing back the uptick rule for months, if not years. This week the debate made it to Capitol Hill. Senior Editor Paddy Hirsch gives a quick and dirty explanation of what the uptick rule is, and why it could be reinstated.
Although gold prices remain under pressure, one longtime trader says he wouldn’t be surprised to see the metal jump $50 higher. ‘The monetary stimulus in this market will be here to stay for at least the next few years and I think that’s underlying bullish for the metals,’ Kitco’s global trading director Peter Hug told Kitco News Wednesday. ‘I think there is potential for accidents to happen [and] within the realm of possibility, I wouldn’t be surprised to come in one day and see gold up $50 instead of down $40.’ The yellow metal fell under pressure earlier in the week, seeing its biggest one-day drop in nearly three years, last settling down 0.08% at $1,268.60 an ounce on Wednesday. However, Hug doesn’t seem too convinced by the selloff. ‘Unless I’m living on another planet, I have seen a...
Tell us about the uptick rule in the USA that says that you can only sell on an uptick? Lucian Miers, a renowned short seller comments. That is to prevent an evil institution with lots of money selling down a company stock in order to frighten retail investors. I think it was a good idea - you can't short a stock unless you have a willing buyer rather than just use financial muscle to smash a stock down. It does protect the instances where short selling coule be misused. What about short selling being used to destroy good companies by pressing their stock price down? I can't think of a single company destroyed by short selling. Short sellers are not responsible for companies going bust.

Here is the link that goes with the post: http://b4in.info/fljv NOTE- I'm not a believer in "global warming/cooling/climate change", however I do believe the warning is real. BUT the cause is not due to global warming as claimed, It's a natural part of the cycle. And we were Biblically warned.

Jos se nisam ni brijao
al' mi zivot vec prijao
kad sam krenuo amidzi
prasnim drumom do Han-pijeska
A ispod gore Romanije
ma da je moglo i ranije
sretoh mladu opaticu
blijedu, ma lijepu, kao freska
Nije bila od kamena,
i cim se takla mog ramena
cudno mi se nasmesila
u njoj neki djavo klija
I ne znam dal' se zaljubila
al' kao divlja me ljubila
i cudne reci mi saptala
