Trading From The Short Side with Danny Moses, Vincent Daniel & Porter Collins

Experienced short sellers hunt for mischaracterized business models and broken monopolies rather than betting against the broad market.

• FICO short thesis: Vincent Daniel and Porter Collins shorted FICO around $2,200-$2,400 after Bill Pulte pushed for credit-score competition from VantageScore; stock fell toward ~$500 before a rally, reflecting a broken monopoly thesis.
• Tesla reframed as low-margin: The panel argues Tesla trades on multiple expansion despite collapsing EPS forecasts (from $10-12 in 2022 estimates to ~$2-2.50), driven by loss of 100%-margin regulatory credits under Trump's policy changes.
