Introduction to Short selling
Short selling is an investment or trading strategy that speculates on the decline in a stock or other securities price. Traders may use short selling as speculation, and investors or portfolio managers may use it as a hedge against the downside risk in the same security or a related one.
Given its nature, short-selling activity is tightly related to the supply of stocks in the stock lending market. It is generally accepted that short-sellers are investors motivated by economic fundamentals such as the uncertainties caused by the pandemic.
