Short-selling guru presents at the Delivering Alpha conference. Some of his comments include:


- Some of his best short ideas are “value” stocks which appear cheap, but just keep getting cheaper.


- Sees a lot of value traps in the technology industry.


- A value trap tech stock looks cheap, and investors are attracted to cash flow, but operations continue to deteriorate.


- He thinks the PC business is going to continue to come under pressure and business deteriorate.


- His short pick in this space is HPQ.
