Pull Back FishingPSQ/QQQ, FAZ/Financials, SOXS/Semiconductors, NAIL/short homebuilding, TZA/small caps, and the list goes on and on for every sector. These are leveraged and short an index.
It is not the same really as going short and you do not have to borrow shares from your broker. These, plus more are ETNs. There are also reciprocals that go long an index that are leveraged. IE FAS is long financials.
Anything leveraged is risky as they move 2-3 times the market movement that day.
Just something I have been looking at until out market turns around and of course it is best to buy a short ETN on an up day for the market, although we have no had a whole lot of these. All of these are very close to their bottom.
Most do not hold these long term.

Exchange-traded notes (ETNs) are types of unsecured debt securities that track an underlying index of securities and trade on a major exchange like a stock. ETNs are similar to bonds but do not have interest payments. Instead, the prices of ETNs fluctuate like stocks.
