        I don’t see why not? Not the actual IPO, but as soon as there are shares on the market, you can short them.

          There also has to be an uptick in price before you can short… its not like forex where you can short whenever you feel like it… as far as I’m aware I’ve never been much of a stock guy though only played in currency exchanges
