There’s already a thread discussing why the stockmarket continued to defy gravity. Most seems to agree that it’s a sucker’s rally. Just wanted to revive this thread to continue our discussion on the best way to profit from stock market decline IF you do believe the recent run-up’s indeed a sucker’s rally and the market will go back down due to whatever reasons. Then it simply means we now have a better entry point than a few months ago for shorts, PUT options etc.

vrudny, sorry to go silent on you. For some reason your last post completely escaped me. I do a similar analysis on options but then i just rely on gut feel and I tell myself if the BEP% is a low single digit then it’s a pretty good deal. It is unscientific though.
