  1. It means you sell shares you don't have in hopes that the price will go down.  

    Example, if you short sell 100 shares of ACME at a price of $50 per share, and then the price goes down to say, $40 per share, you can "buy back" the shares you sold short for a profit of $10 per share (less commissions, of course)
