Short positions in U.S. markets rose this month to their highest level since April 2022 as investors bet that the current rise in stocks will soon stop. The data was released Friday by S3 Partners.
It found that total open positions against the market rose to $1.02 trillion! It's probably no surprise to anyone that these bets are not successful so far. The data from S3 bears this out as they report that investors have lost over $100 billion this way this year.
That's exactly why I'm not bitter. :D
Everybody shorts, so 📈😁
Those shorts are just insidious...
That's why I'm not bitter, I'd probably lose my own pants in there. I don't see how anyone can be successful at it long term. btw is there anyone like that at all?
Those are terrible numbers... and that's why I'm still a little afraid of shorting :)
Good thing I'm not bitter 😀 I'm also waiting for the fall to come and still nothing.
