I may get my ass handed to me a bit but I took a small short position on the QQQQ at 49.02 going into the fed decision. There has been a steady rise over the last week and I think that even if the fed does drop the rate by ½ a point the market will still sell off at some point today. I am hoping for no change or just a ¼ point move which will for sure mark a sell off. Any thoughts ?? I do not want a rate cut , I have to much money sitting in CDâs :-}
Should have went with PSQ, no need to short QQQQ when you can trade PSQ instead. If there is no change expect these gains to head south in a matter of seconds, could close down over 100+ points.... if there is a 1/4 point cut I think the markets will close .5-1% higher, a 50 Basis points cut and I think the DOW can add on 250+ points. I would think a .25 cut is most likely, however they should not cut to begin with.
I see the PSQ is the short way to do the QQQQ . Same effect shorting the QQQQ or buying the PSQ I would think ??
