Hi everyone, thank you for coming back to my blog. I hope you found my last blog interesting and useful, where I covered \u2018The 2-List Strategy Used To Prioritise And Focus By Warren Buffett\u2019.In this blog, I\u2019m going to cover how you can make profit on declining stocks, yes, you read that correctly, you can make profit when stocks are on the decline!Most investors purchase a stock with the expectation that the stock price will rise. If all goes according to plan, the investor would eventually sell the stock and realise a profit. But have you ever felt certain that a stock price would fall? What if there was a way you could profit from that situation? There is! It\u2019s called short selling.Short selling is rather simple, but many investors struggle to understand the mechanics of the process. This technique also has some different risks to consider.In simple terms, short selling is the selling of a stock that is owned by someone else. Even though someone else owns it, you\u2019ve made a promise to deliver it. When you short sell a stock, the broker lends the stock to you.The shares are sold, and the money is credited to your account. Then, you finish the transaction by purchasing the same number of shares to replace those you were \u2018given\u2019 by the broker.If the price has dropped, you can buy the shares back for less than the original price, and you make money. However, if the stock goes up, you\u2019ll lose money.The following steps show the mechanics for making a short sale:1. Set up a margin account with your broker: Any broker will offer margin accounts. This type of account allows you to borrow money from the brokerage company. Your investments are used as collateral.2.
