This is what short selling stocks means.

short selling rule is another bull bubble to happen.

Why is short selling bad? How is betting on the price to rise any better than betting on the price to fall.

Your videos are better than a $600 stock market course, I took in college.

- Thanks for posting all your educational videos

I've got a real question here... I've been unable to find an answer on Google

Can I buy a stock short and then sell it the same day ? or the next day ? ?

Let's say I see a stock JUMP 20% in early morning trading, but I feel it will drop down to 12% to 15% gain, by the end of the day.

Can I earn a 5 - 8 percent profit in 1 day (if I guess correctly) ???

[fububalla]

yep

[c4mouse]

so you sell something you dont own borrow them to hand over and buy them back for them at a lower price ... WOW your a fruad

[playfyte]

(Liquidity) my hairy,smelly ass!!!! You sell me something you do not own after you have come to understand (by whatever means) is going to go down in value so that you can make a profit when you buy it back without telling me the truth about the instrument's volatility or lack of stability is the same as stealing my money,as I would see it. It absolutely REEKS of fraud with a requisite amount of dishonesty. Is this the status of american business ethics today?

Say what you will, it still seems dishonest to me. I actually work for a living and EARN my keep and do quite well. You are obviously one of those who does not understand the value of making an honest deal, looking another man in the eye and shaking hands. When things are above board everyone makes money and we don't get the kind of crap we got last year. But then , I guess, people like you thrive on crap.

Hi playfyte. I don`t understand the problem. The market is full of buyers and sellers. No one is going to sell anything if they believe the price is going to rise. They will wait. Similarly,no one is going to buy anything if they believe the price is going to fall. They wait.

As for "...truth about the instrument`s volatility..." well - it`s no ones business but your own to know what your doing with your money. I`ve lost because I didn`t do my research. That`s no ones fault but mine.

[playfyte]

You are absolutely right and I agree with what you say about "YOUR MONEY". But remember, if you will, that this type of predatory money manipulation is what has walked us step by step into a weakened economy. The profit motive is good. But, by what means? I believe that if one does upfront, above board and honest business, every one is much better off. How much profit is enough at any given point? Honestly look at where we are at. Without a strong consumer base our country is in danger.

there is no fraud involved, but check out what Porsche did with VW shares when they took the short sellers to near bankruptcy.

Traders where selling VW shares unaware of the volume in trade, on the call date it became apparent the actual numbers of VW shares on market where far less then those actually needed to fulfill all demand pushing VW to €1000 a share, Porsche then released 5% of VW instantly depressing the price and making a killing in the process.

[playfyte]

Do you understand why it is that it seems like some level of fraud to me? Can you explain why you say there is no fraud involved, when in some cases the seller may not even have the stock? Please don't say because it's legal or something trite like that. I am not very savy about everything that goes on on Wall st. It's this kind of insider info combined with that business philosophy that caused the crash in 1929 and runs on banks.

[xdir]

Its not fraud because the delivery date has been agreed by both parties.

eg If I sell you an Ipod for payment now but delivery next Tuesday, I dont need to have the Ipod in my possession & I dont need to deliver it on any day BUT next Tuesday - on the agreed day I will have to give you the Ipod regardless of what it might cost me, if Ipods suddenly became scarce and cost $10000 each, I would have to pay that price to deliver.

[playfyte]

So, you are saying that you might attempt to short sell me on an item but ultimately end up losing on the deal. does that sound correct?

[xdir]

Yes, its a gamble on my part, i would be betting the item you buy today will be worth less on the day of delivery (where upon I will buy it and give to you).
