Because shorts invariable have call dates and that makes timing
problematic.
This is the main problem with shorting a stock. Unlike buying a stock,
where you can keep it indefinitely, shorting a stock can pound you horribly
because you *must* exercise the purchase by the call date.
It also has no cap on losses. Buy a stock, and the most you can lose is
what you paid. Short it, and the price can raise into infinity, you can
lose any amount
