Retail investors have the power and opportunity to take action while profiting - TSLA, DJT, Ethereum ETFs
Often times, retail investors feel powerless and at the mercy of policy makers, tyrants, powers out to destabilise and cause unrest. However, the current circumstances offer retail investors the almost unprecedented opportunity to directly protest and oppose blatant corruption, insider trading, market manipulation AND profit while doing so.
The US may have voted Trump and Elon into office, but the rest of the world does not have to stand for it and suffer in silence.
There has been a growing movement to sell Tesla and even take short positions against it. We've wiped off 41% of the stock value YTD, hedge funds are divesting from it. What has silently happened in the background is that DJT has also taken a blow, equally down 41% YTD. Forget fundamentals and technicals, retail investors are hurting and negative sentiment to the administration is high.
Retail investors were able to drive Gamestop prices to sky high valuations based on poor fundamentals and an agenda (take back from the rich, make hedge funds pay, etc).
It is time for a retail investors to take collective action once more. Based on Tesla being Elon's publicly listed company, DJT being Trump's publicly listed company, and Ethereum being Trump's biggest crypto holdings, these are the actions that can be taken for each individual's respective risk tolerance:
Lower risk - TLSQ (1x daily inverse Tesla ETF), SETH (1x daily inverse Ethereum ETF)
Moderate risk - TSLX (2x daily inverse Tesla ETF), ETHD (2x daily inverse Ethereum ETF)
High risk - Short sell on TSLA and DJT stocks, Long puts on TSLA and DJT, Short calls on TSLA and DJT.
The combination of these actions are exacerbated by the volatile market environment caused by the tariff uncertainty, inflationary actions and market instability caused by the administration, giving them a dose of their own medicine. Take profits, rinse and repeat, then when they've cratered, invest the returns into US defensives such as utilities, staples and healthcare, US and EU space and satellite companies, EU defence companies, Hong Kong and Singapore blue chip companies, treasuries and bunds.
