Selling short is hoping to make money on a drop in the share price. Buying options can protect against the stock actually going up. Long is holding what you've got and ignoring what's going on day to day.

Me, I couldn't tell you what funds my 401k is in, and I'd actually have to make a guess as to which company is running it. I know it's a big company that we've all heard of, but I'd have to ask my wife which one.

It warms my heart to see a short squeeze in the news, though.
