Download or read book Sell Short written by Michael Shulman and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2009-03-30 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Come over to the short side. Ever since Dutch trader Isaac Le Maire invented short selling in 1609 (and evoked the first ban on it), short selling has been seen as the dark side of stock trading slightly suspect and too intricate for individual investors. Today, short selling is an integral part of all markets and new tools can make it as simple as buying stocks. As Michael Shulman explains in this book, a short seller is a profit-seeking contrarian who sees opportunities others do not as a stock or market segment moves down. In Sell Short, Shulman turns the mystery of short selling inside out, revealing how using the same fundamental approach underlying the purchase of a stock can lead to tremendous opportunities on the short side. Shulman does not believe traditional short selling is a good trading approach for individuals and this simple, but comprehensive overview of short selling focuses on buying puts or, in some situations, exchange-traded funds (ETFs). Throughout these pages, Shulman reveals the day-to-day details needed to generate short side profits. He describes how short selling works and how individual investors can best identify compelling opportunities before Wall Street finds them. Shulman also helps you to determine what part of your portfolio will fund short selling, what percentage of your capital should go to the short side, and how big each position should be. Filled with in-depth insights and straightforward advice, Sell Short walks you through the mechanics of opening, managing, and closing a position, including rolling or pressing a position to increase profits. (Shulman does cover traditional shorting, though, in case you'd like to take that route.) Step by step, this book prepares you to: Prospect for gold in fading stocks See opportunities that Wall Street misses Create, manage, and exit a position Short stocks, markets, and indices as well as specific sub-segments of the market, real estate (through REITs), commodities, and even countries Create the "rocket-fueled trade" the higher-risk purchase of calls on double inverse ETFs Explore a dvanced trading techniques such as selling calls, hedging, bear call spreads, selling puts on short ETFs, and more

Download or read book How to Make Money by Selling Land written by Pat Porter and published by . This book was released on 2021-02-09 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I can help you learn how to have a better chance of finding property, buying it, and doing the things necessary to sell it for profit. Just do what we do.Here's how it started. I was driving to look at a new property a client called me to list in north Louisiana. I was thinking that this 38-acre listing was right in the sweet spot for the size tracts that many people want for rural home sites in our region. I wondered if this tract could be bought at a price where we could improve it and make some money on it just like the......well, just like the last several tracts I had bought over the last year! I had bought, personally and occasionally with a couple of partners, 12 different deals just like this. Well, not identical deals in size and use, but similar in that they were smaller tracts ranging from 12 to 80 acres. I'd never really considered looking at my buying and selling in a context of time and lumping all the deals together into information that I could pass along to others. But this was the idea I just had. Why not talk about how I do it? Why not break down some of the steps I take? Why not explain the things I do to buy and sell a tract for profit? The bite-sized pieces of information could be useful to others who wanted to do the same.I consider myself somewhat of an expert in the rural land brokerage business. I mean, heck...I do own and manage a large regional land brokerage dealing with millions of dollars in listings each year. I do know my way around most types of land tracts. I haven't, however, thought of myself as an expert land investor. Yes, I've been involved in the purchase and sale of thousands of acres - and all made money! - but that's just me doing what I do. An expert? No. Something to teach? Maybe.So, here it is. My steps, thoughts, and actions on how I managed to buy and sell 12 different small tracts in about 18 months...all at a profit. There were two large deals - one over 1000 acres and another at almost 5000 acres - that I was also involved in at the same time. Those deals are different than the 12 I'll use for discussion here. Those deals require a different level of funding and knowledge that may be more than you want to tackle. So, for here, we'll focus on the 12 smaller tracts and see what we can learn.The following chapters are written in a way that they can be plucked out and used as separate pieces of information that can provide a needed piece of guidance along your way. Absorb it all as a whole or pick and choose what you want.
