I’m afraid to short. I won’t do it.
I believe homebuilders, retailers, and lenders will be down a LOT over the next few years.
But I know there will be rallies inbetween the downs.
The rallies can cause a short squeeze, and the big traders know how to kill a small guy like me.
I won’t take the risks.
I would consider an inverse fund, but don’t know of any that short real estate. The ProFunds is a REIT inverse fund, so that doesn’t qualify.
