PowerShares HighYield Dividend Achievers (PEY) - The Perfect ETF to short

Discussion in 'ETFs' started by jackstone54, Apr 9, 2008.

  1. This ETF's top 10 holdings compose some of the riskiest stocks on the street. You know one or more of these companies will close its doors by the end of the year. I suspect there will be at least 20-30% more downside for this etf.

    Im going to be a buyer in about 6-12 months when this ETF will have pumped most of its value into the youtube.

  4. Its still not too late Robie boy. A downtrending instrument tends to stay downtrending. Im serious, I think this will probably be sub-10 in no time and probably be eventually cut in half as some of its components go out of business.
