Paris Attacks: Short Selling Theory
So I imagine today everyone is going to be shorting the hell out of French stocks, but I was just thinking on principle of market efficiency if everyone in the market is shorting french stocks today, then you wont be able to make a profit from doing so, no?
But what I'm trying to get my head round is how this would play out in reality? What I'm thinking is that shorting french stocks right now is actually going to be very difficult because anyone who owns french stocks will already be selling off, and so there won't be any supply to short.
Is there anything else I'm missing here?
Uhm, yeah, no. Not going to happen. This has literally no relevance for financial markets. But if you want to go short anyways I'd recommend buying put options.
