Short Sale

When it comes to investing, there is a strategy known as short selling, where individuals sell stocks they do not currently own. The goal is to buy back the stock at a lower price in the future, profiting from the difference. However, this requires a margin account with a broker. Short selling involves a certain level of risk and should be approached with caution.
