SOXS: Making Money By Shorting Bad Products
- Direxion Daily Semiconductor Bear 3X Shares ETF is a poor long-term investment due to its inverse nature and volatility drag.

Don't Bet Against Progress
- Shorting or hedging against companies driving innovation and growth in the US stock markets is not a viable long-term strategy.

ETFs that bet against innovation and growth are likely to underperform their benchmarks in the long term. It is better to invest in stocks of innovative firms and funds tracking major indexes.

Profit From The Next Semiconductor Downturn With SOXS
- I believe semiconductor stocks are at high risk due to limited benefits from AI, weak earnings, US-China trade war risks, recession risk, and high valuation levels. I recommend the Direxion Daily Semiconductor Bear 3X Shares ETF as a way to profit from the potential decline in semiconductor stocks during a recession. SOXS is designed to provide three times the opposite daily return of the ICE Semiconductor Index and has the potential to double or more if the index falls 30%+.
