The short sell ban is lifted since 12am last night? Is it a good idea to try and make some money off that?

If you like gambling.

is that good or bad?

ordinarily it would seem good, but temporarily cutting it, then bringing it back when the market is in a nosedive seems pretty erratic.

I think the rules prevent them from bringing the short-sell ban back anytime soon unless the rules are amended.

CNN just reported the ban was lifted last night, and were asking if today losses were due to that
