There are 175 high-volume large-capitalization stocks in my analytical universe that have sufficient liquidity for a bear play. A bear position can be build from either options or short shares, and both tactics require liquid symbols, which excludes most of the market.
The stocks have average daily volume of 3 million shares or more and market caplitalization of $10 billion or greater.
The stocks have average daily volume of 3 million shares or more and market caplitalization of $10 billion or greater.
Out of those 175 symbols, 76 are presently in confirmed bear mode according to my rules. That means that each has broken below its 20-day price channel and continued to trade below the breakout level on the next day.
As of the Jan. 27 close, the 76 symbols in bear mode are:
