Muriel Siebert Passionate About Short Selling Rules
When the news about the SEC’s emergency order to stop “naked short selling” started leaking out yesterday, I was on the phone with Muriel (Mickie) Siebert discussing the Short Sale Uptick Rule that was lifted one year ago. I definitely had the right person on the phone at the right time. Siebert, renowned for being the first woman to own a seat on the New York Stock Exchange and also for founding the discount brokerage Siebert Financial Corp., was against the removal of the Uptick Rule last year. She believed then that it stripped companies of protection against short sellers and still believes it should be put back in place. [The Uptick Rule said you could not short a stock until there was an uptick in its price, preventing a free-for-all downward spiral of the stock.]
