Malaysian stock exchange operator Bursa Malaysia will reintroduce regulated short selling on Jan-3-2007 after a gap of nearly a decade. Short-sellers borrow shares and sell them in the hope of buying them back later at a lower price.
Not all the stocks listed in the Kuala Lumpur Stock Exchange (KLSE) will be eligible for short-selling. How are the stocks being selected are still mystery. However the rules pertaining to this regulated short-selling are still in grey area – hopefully the authorities will enlighten the public on the matter soonest.

to fine-tune to make it a smooth instrument.
