I think you need a period of self reflection, and ask yourself what kind of a person Shorts an "excellent" company knowing full well they might need to raise capital soon? You are actively participating in an attempt to ruin this company. You may feel the term "parasite" is an unfair description of yourself, but I think it's rather apt for this situation. The common defense for Shorters is that "well the price will fall regardless, I'm just taking advantage", I see it more as you leeching off the manipulation of powerful forces behind closed doors, and ALL shorting adds to downward price pressure, so no Shorter can claim innocence here.

I think all excellent companies are strong enough to withstand such tactics, otherwise they wouldn't be an excellent company, but that doesn't change your immoral behaviour here. As a principle, I never Short in general, let alone good companies, and that allows me to live with myself. I think how you make your money is just as important as how much you make.

Why don't you invest in markets where shorting is banned?
The returns should be better because there's no shorting and
you would also help to encourage other markest to do the same.
