In this case, as I understand it, it is short-term.
margaret, sorry to be snide: what do you think a "short position" is?
In this case, as I understand it, short-term.
That's what I understood too (only because of the context).
But this understanding is not consistent with the term used. "Short position" in finance is short, but in no way short-term.
P.S. OK, margaret, credit. It's just not the first time I've seen such liberties about the term "short", and last time it was a girl too... It's not a long way to Freudian interpretations of the phenomenon - especially when you consider that there's ten times less chance of meeting a girl here than there is of meeting a boy.
Again, forgive me for being nerdy.
Friday, 15 July. Greece must pay its creditors €2.4 billion. If the country does not receive the 12-billion-euro loan, it could default.
Greece will not default, at least not until July, as parliament has decided on an €80m bailout.
That's how I understood it too (only because of the context).

Short is because short of, 'short of'. It has nothing to do with the movement of stocks, as far as I know.
Interestingly, there is the expression "short sell", but there is no "short buy".
I'm not sure if you're right, but I'm sure you're right, and I'm sure you're right. We had Porksaurus here he will confirm if anything, I just added to your post Alexey. This is for the locals as an insight).

I am not Russian, I mean this.
short - a short position is called short because the stock is falling fast
a long position is called a long position because the stock is going up for a long time.
That's why we call it short long.
we have a sell buy.
