The Practice
Short selling is the practice of borrowing stock, then selling it in hopes that the price will go down and it can be bought back at a lower price, generating profit and allowing one to return like shares for the borrowed ones.
"Naked shorting" refers to "shorting" a stock for sale without first borrowing it. [2]. When one sells short a non-borrowed stock, one is selling something that one does not possess. The risk that one may not be able to then acquire the shares needed to deliver on the sale is a contributing factor to the controversy surrounding this practice.[3]
Legally, on American exchanges, only a "market maker" in a security may sell a stock short without first locating a borrow.
