Weekly Market Wrap: The Bears are Back in Full force!
New: Join our 3-hour live workshop with Spencer to learn the basics of trading and make your first live trade!
After the rate hike last week, and the continued hawkish tone of the Fed, the market bears are now back in full force!
As we mentioned in our video last week, the long-term trend is still bearish, so the short-term rebound of the market was an excellent shorting opportunity.
And those shorts have paid off, when markets plunged after the FOMC, and all shorts are deeply in the money now. If the markets continue to fall, this could end up being our most profitable month this year!
Next week, the strategy largely remains the same, which is to accumulate more short positions on any pullbacks.
