"You must have a margin account to sell short and you'll pay interest on the amounts you borrow," says Antoine Sylvas, an investment specialist with Charles Schwab in San Francisco.
Sylvas says that you'll have to keep 50% margin in your account in most cases: if you sell short $20,000 worth of stock, for example, you'll have to keep $10,000 worth of cash or other securities in your account.
As part of your diversified portfolio, you could include stock mutual funds that sell short.
