$TSLA $SPY $MU $SNDK “To short, or not to short—that is the question.
’Tis nobler in my account to suffer
The swings and volatility of outrageous fortunes,
Or to take puts against a sea of bulls,
And by opposing, profit?
To sell—to short—
No more; and by a trade to say we end
The heartache and the thousand market shocks
That portfolios are heir to.
To sell, to short—
To short, perchance to squeeze—aye, there’s the rub,
For in that short squeeze, what losses may come
When bulls refuse to die must give us pause.
To hold, perchance recover.
To panic-sell, perchance regret.
For who would bear the whips and scorns of Wall Street,
The Fed’s delay, inflation’s spite,
The insolence of analysts,
And the margin calls that humble mortal men?
Thus risk management doth make cowards of us all,
And trades of great conviction and momentum
With one red candle turn awry
And lose the name of profit.
To short, or not to short?
Screw it.
Buy the dip.”
