I am a common individual investor. I have some stocks, such as RAYTHEON TECHNOLOGIES CORPORATION(RTX), OCCIDENTAL PETROLEUM CORPORATION(OXY), etc. Due to the recent market decline, I had to protect my investment. Three methods can be implemented which are futures, options, and inverse funds. It is too risky for me to involve in options and futures trading. It is a feasible and low risky
I am a retail investor who enjoys testing and using various stock picking strategies for a part of my portfolio. I don't have any professional training in the workings of the stock market. However, I was a math major in college and a computer scientist by trade. I think I know enough to understand the basic concept of a leveraged ETF and/or inverse ETFs. I also use an analytical
I have been trading stocks for the better part of 8years, I feel like we need the utmost transparency with regards to short interest data. I do not understand how a stock like AMC keeps getting hammered down or trades sideways on good news as well as millions of investors holding and buying more on the dips.

What I have witnessed over the past year or so that is going on with stock $GME and $AMC is on a whole different scale. I was new to trading until I got involved signing up with RobinHood earlier in 2020.

There is no reason all data from the stock market including short data isn’t transmitted in real time. This isn’t the 1920’s and also “family office” is a sham. It was created in the early 20th century and the rules governing them have never been updated. They should report like everyone else or be used as shells for market makers to hide short positions.
