Traders who are “short” on a stock are short selling shares and creating a negative share balance. This means they will be holding -1,000 shares. As soon as they sell the shares they turn a profit from the sale, BUT, they must buy back the shares. The shares have been borrowed from the broker to sell in advance, with the intention of buying the shares back in a short period of time.
