Short XLF not because it is hard, but because it is easy

29 avr. 2020

Its top two constituents by weight, JP Morgan and Berkshire Hathaway's (stinky) B shares, have been performing very poorly in comparison to most stocks:





This along with XLK (tech bubble) and XLE (oil) are, to me, overvalued and must be denied higher prices.

I'm glad I picked XLF instead of the other two.

Closing trade for now, will consider reopening near the end of today's session

Mistakes made:
- Didn't cover the 6/19 long put earlier like near EOD Thursday or start of the session Friday
- Should've waited further into the session to rollover into the 6/26
- Maybe should've waited to get into 6/26 put on Monday instead
