What point do you think you are making here? That the market is a casino? Taibbi would probably agree with you! I've made money on these bets, so have some of my friends (more money than me, they had more balls than I did and made more risky trades). The general consensus is that these "zombie companies" are worthless, hence the short positions. I (and others) think they're wrong, hence the long positions. Efficient Market Hypothesis conserved. You're welcome.
