   You can use the accessibility menu to make the parrying timing more forgiving for Dead Cells. See if that works for you?

    Sorry, that's not what I was saying. As far as I can tell, there's no minimum period you have to wait after an IPO to be able to short shares. Legally, you can do it from day one. And instead of a classic short where you have to

    Whatever float is available on the market can be made available for short sellers to borrow. That can even happen multiple times: ie short interest can exceed 100% of the float. Or even 100% of the market capitalisation. With stock future

    Details depends on jurisdiction, of course. In the US, you would likely also have to pay capital gains taxes for such a trade. (I think.) In Singapore, in contrast, swapping between funds like this would not have any tax implications.

    I broadly agree. Though I'm less pessimistic: lots of people will pay lots of attention to SpaceX and friends, and with short selling in public markets being possible, an accurate price will be established very quickly. Remember also:

    If you are subject to capital gains taxes, this would likely be a bad idea? (Though I have no clue how American 401k work in this regard.)

    You know that short selling is possible? And index funds are traditionally some of the keenest participants to lend their shares out to short sellers in return for a bit of extra return (over the raw index).

    There's lots of different indices with different rules, and lots of different funds to implement these. Pick one that works with your preferences.
