By Chris Johnson September short interest for all exchanges is now out. I’m seeing some declines that carried over, as short sellers took the opportunity to close out what were probably some winning positions. |

On December 13, 2007 I wrote a piece that pointed to shorting opportunities in the large-cap sector. At this point in the game, Apple was trading for $189 and Google at $698. In a Chart of the Day segment titled, “Utilizing Divergences for Big Gains: Two Tech Giants Ripe to Fall,” I had stated the following: “It was just a day ago when I discovered two bearish divergences occurring simultaneously between the RSI and price on both Apple and Google’s charts. After an impressive run, these two plays are losing buying momentum and are at the end of the road.” Example setup for Google (GOOG:Nasdaq) seen below: Goolge  Today, Google’s stock trades at $600.25 -- a $98 dollar drop in one month’s time! It didn’t take long for Google to change trends, and it would have been an incredibly simple trade to make, especially when you consider using option strategies to capture big gains. Similarly, Apple’s stock fell from $189 to today’s price near $161 -- a $28 drop and another win in the trade column.
