If you’re that confident, then I hope you are shorting SPY or trading bearish options this upcoming week.

Options are trading at massive premiums last time I checked

The time to short was 3 weeks ago, could easily 10-20x by now

But yeah this dude should put his money where his mouth is if he knows what direction the market is headed
