BEARISH CALL ON RUSSIA PAYS OFF
Our Bearish Call On Russian Stocks Nets 15% in Just 48 Hours
FTMDaily.com – Amid mounting tensions between Russia and the West, we advised our subscribers earlier this month to keep their eyes on Russian stocks. On March 4, I wrote the following note to all of our FTM Insiders:
“With Russian stocks falling like a rock amid the Ukraine crisis, here’s one trade that could provide some short-term profits. This Russian ETF (Ticker: RUSS) is a highly leveraged (3x) inverse play on Russia’s stock market. This ETF goes up by a factor of three when Russia’s broad stock market falls by a factor of one. I always use extreme caution with these inverse ETFs as they can be highly volatile. Potential entry point at $22.31.”
On Wednesday, the ETF reached its entry price of $22.31 and we swooped in to buy shares. Then, the following day, the ETF did exactly what I expected: It soared by over 13% in a matter of a few hours. All told, our current trade is up nearly 15% in just two days! Because it never pays to be greedy, I will be looking to sell the ETF today and lock in the gains.
