Unveiling Short Positions on the ASX: Introducing Shorted
Introducing Shorted
In the fast-paced world of finance, timely and transparent information is crucial. Today, we're excited to introduce Shorted—your gateway to understanding short selling activities on the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX).
Understanding Short Selling
Before we delve into Shorted, let's revisit the concept of short selling:
Short selling is an investment strategy where traders anticipate a decline in a stock's price. They borrow shares to sell them on the market, intending to repurchase them later at a lower price, pocketing the difference as profit.
