English to Hebrew translations [PRO] Bus/Financial - Investment / Securities | | English term or phrase: to short (v) | I'm well aware of the many variations of translating the financial "short" into Hebrew - חסר, מכירה בחסר, מוכר בחסר etc.
But how would you translate the term "are short" in the following sentence?
"Short sellers, in agregate, are short 1 million shares of the company."
Thanks in advance! |

2 hrs confidence:   זה שם תואר, לא פועל: הם בחסר
Explanation: 'are short' is not 'to short'.
בהצטבר (או הצטברות), המוכרים בחסר (או מוכרי החסר) נמצאים בחסר של מליון מניות של החברה
