Anything about stocks, and the economy, and how to gamble with option on it. "Hodl", and "to the moon" meme are welcome, as long it is not another conspiracy about the short squeeze of all time, or whatever bullshit born from "that" stock

Warning: Gambling is an addiction, consult about it if you are concerned.

... no? As a regular investor, you shouldn't short anything. Infinite risk, finite gain is a stupid game to play unless you got a lot of money to burn.

Shorting is not infinite risk, you can just inverse it, you don't have to use options

Inverse ETF? Smart to play the index, for sure.

Whatever you do, do it to spite the A.I. bubble makers, so that they crash and burn.

If you have to lose money in that endeavor, at least know it was for a good cause.
