Well, options have the added risk that they'll just expire. With options, you've got to get lucky about your timing even more so than when shorting.
Anyway. Nietzsche had a saying. Which is, "Where you cannot love there you shall pass by." Why try to make money by betting against a company when you can just find a different company to bet on instead?
- FreakLegion 4y ago> betting against a company I wouldn't have been betting against Tesla; I would've been betting on a frothy market coming to its senses. Shorting isn't per se a bet against a company, just a prediction that a number will go down. Why it goes down may and often does have nothing much to do with the company. This is also true when the number goes up. Anyway, that's a saying of Zarathustra's, not Nietzsche's. Author and character are not the same. Deleuze had a saying: "Good destruction requires love."
- leobg 4y agoHa. A fellow Zarathustra reader! Nice.
