With so many more ETFs now (in variety and liquidity) than last real bear market, it may be just easier to ride the ETFs down if the market is reflecting higher recession probabilities.
PDP, PIV, RTH, XHB, IYR, SMH, IBB, etc, etc.
ETF's are just vehicles. A better stock selection strategy will any day beat ETF.
It'll also be interesting to see how these absolute returns/low beta strategies hold up...RYMSX, DBV.
If the carry trade (DBV) too breaks down, it'll be a serious indicator of increased systemic risk....then good ole BIL or SHY would probably be best bet.....and I forgot about QID/TWM/SDS/etc.....those would have been helpful c. 2000-2002.
Cheers.
Traders have not thought through the other side of using ETFs. Better stock picking is always key. When you use ETF you sub optimise.

But there are also problems with managers using ETFs to hedge their equity portfolios, Weinhoffer said.
ETFs have more moving parts than a single stock, he explained. If a hedge-fund manager wants to short a couple of hard-to-borrow biotech stocks, for example, the manager could more easily bet against an ETF covering that industry.
But when managers do that, they're not just shorting the two stocks they want to target; they're also betting against several other companies that they may not know as much about, Weinhoffer said. "There's extra risk there."
Bernstein noted that equity hedge funds typically go long stocks with high betas (if the market goes up or down 1%, these stocks will go up or down 1.5% or 2%, for example).
If funds are also short an ETF, these usually have a much lower beta (they move more in step with the market). So, if the market goes down 1%, the ETF position may rise by 1%, but the long positions could go down by 1.5% or 2%, he explained.
Increased shorting of ETFs also poses a dilemma for funds of hedge funds, which allocate money to a range of different outside managers, Bernstein said.
These investors like to invest with managers who focus on different strategies and hold different securities. That diversification cuts the risk of big losses. But if a lot of managers are shorting ETFs, returns and losses may be more correlated than investors realize, Bernstein explained.
ETFs are also indexes, and so, by definition, they provide so-called beta -- that is, the return generated by the market. Hedge-fund managers are in the business of creating alpha and outpacing the market benchmarks. So if they build short positions with ETFs, that part of their strategy will track whatever portion of the market they're betting against. That could end up looking more like beta than alpha.
Investors may be better off investing with a mutual-fund manager who is a great stock picker, then shorting ETFs themselves, Glen Dailey, head of prime brokerage at Jefferies Group, said, adding that this strategy would incur fewer fees.
Hi Pradeep,
You said, "The basic logic behind this is to short a stock which was formerly a price leader and which had been lagging market in last six month."
Which condition checks for the stock lagging the market in last 6 month. Is it price percent change from 1 to 25.
Thanks a lot.
Hi Pradeep
just want to say thank you for the knowledge and guidance you have given to us, i read pretty much your blog completely and stopped being afraid of trading with a plan based on your post here..following one of your ideas, i just netted 24% in TWO days in SMSI, again thanks...i guess a i just beated a lot of professionals and bloggers in two days as far of returns, again , thank you and my hat to you again
thanks for pointing that out. See correction:
Price percent change 26- weeks= rank 1 to 25
If you run this intraday, run it without 1000 volume condition as that will distort results.
I am simply amazed. You have so many well thought out ideas.
I have made more money by following your ideas and learned how to think like a trader.
The best thing about your blog is it teaches how to fish and does not provide ready made picks.
I just sent you a small paypal donation. Again thanks for your excellent blog.
Pradeep,
Great blog, valuable advice.
The question irrelevant to this post, but related to your earnings breakout strategy. Why Walgreens (WAG) did not respond to a positive earnings and revenues surprise today? Is it because of the price action during the two days prior the announcement? Thanks.
There was no major surprise in fact compared to last few quarters earnings were not good. Plus earnings breakouts work on unloved, unfollowed stocks. WAG has several analyst covering it. It has a float of 992 million, these kind of stocks seldom react to earnings. In such stocks earnings are anticipated.
Barry
Thanks
Andrey,
WAG had positive earning's and revenue's growth, but not an earning's surprise, and the surprise is what matters. WAG didn't meet Wallstreet's expectations. Even if a company has triple digit earnings' growth, if it doesn't meet the street's expectation, it will decline. The fact that the street has so high expectaions for WAG is indicative that it is a company well followed by many analysts and the probability to surprise with higher earnings or revenues is way too low.
Thanks, guys. Got it. I guess, using similar reasoning, not much should be expected from SNX and AMSWA following their later announcements tonight.
What if I use Price growth 2 year or 3 year instead of 1 year. I tried that it gives wider universe to work with. Your thought on this please.
This thing is interesting. I already found many good short candidates in this scan.
No harm in trying it out. The idea should be to find 25 to 30 best opportunities, too many things can be distracting. Plus my testing and results show best results with one year.
that's quite an insightful post Dear Pradeep. Thanks for sharing your thoughts.
Regards,
OP
