It’s easy for me to sit here and tell you that short-selling is extremely profitable, but you’re not going to understand the full effect until you start shorting stocks…
That’s why I’m going to get you on your feet with this $16,000 profit from short-selling.
After that, you’ll be short-selling stocks left and right, raking in the unbelievable profits it brings with it.
If you don’t know the first thing about short-selling, don’t worry… I’ll show you how easy it is…
If you’re not aware, short-selling is a form of trading stocks where you’re betting on a specific stock or exchange traded fund (ETF) to go down.
Short-selling is most effective in a bear market, or a short-term downward correction, both of which could possibly happen very soon (it’s a healthy market move).
Even though the bull market is continuing to rage on, and we’re continuing to take profits from buying stocks, there’ll come a time when we’ll see the market swiftly come down to its 200-day moving average.
From that point, it could go either way.
That’s why now is the perfect time for me to set you up with your very first short-sell… a $16,000 short-sell profit for that matter.
I’ve recently come across a sector that has been falling despite the market’s strong upward movement—which is a very bearish sign.
Not only is this sector’s chart almost prime for a short-sell, but one of the biggest stock market players is forcing the majority of this sector out of business.
I’m talking about the retail sector, and that market giant is Amazon (AMZN).
To get more specific, I’m measuring the retail sector through the chart of the SPDR S+P Retail ETF (XRT).
XRT peaked back in 2015 when Amazon was worth only half as much as it is now.
Since then, Amazon has taken the retail sector by storm, forcing devaluations and store closures of big retail brands like Sears (SHLD), Macy’s (M), and shopping mall giant Simon Property Group (SPG).
After a blistering 86% rise in 3 years for Simon Property Group’s stock, it took only 10 months for it to shed 43% of its value.
In that same timeframe, XRT took 3 years to build up 56% in value before shaving off 62% of those gains within 10 months.
This just goes to show that when a stock starts to fall, it happens much more quickly than its rise to the top.
And that’s where our $16,000 opportunity comes in.
You see, if you were to short 100 shares of XRT and 100 shares of SPG at the perfect tipping point, you’d rake in a very swift $16,691 profit, if it were to fall down to its previous evaluations—and at the rate they’re moving, I expect them to surpass those numbers.
Remember, you should never short-sell a stock as the market’s rising, but as soon as the market starts to dip, you can be sure that these retail stocks will take a beating.
You may even want to purchase some Amazon shares while you’re at it, as it’s consistently squeezing its competitors out of the market as online shopping continues to become more and more favorable for consumers.
