That's how it works but you will have to pay income tax on what you make. You have to hold a stock a year (I believe) before you get capital gains treatment. Unfortunately the case in point, GM, is going down. The people who made money on GM were the ones who sold it short. Speculation is never a good idea but in today's market it's an even worse idea.
