TSM Strategy for Shorting? ... Richard

I have followed some of your summaries with interest, and I do realize that even in declining markets there are always some profitable long positions that can be profitably taken.

However, just as it's easier to be long in bull markets it is easier and more profitable to be short in bears.

Do you now have, or are you planning to publish a similar analysis for the bear side when the market does turn?

Thanks,

Richard

Richard,

I find it extremely difficult to make money on the short side with individual stocks. I would prefer to buy inverse ETFs or use a market strategy to short the SPYs. As far as the TSM approach goes, it now uses exclusively a long-side approach. Note, in 2008, the S&P dropped 38.5% while primarily the long TSM strategy returned +110.7%.
