The so-called short selling literally means forcing the empty side to buy. The word "forcing the air" comes from futures. It means that many parties are constantly pulling up, forcing the empty side to close the position. Because futures rise to a certain extent, the empty side will be forced to close the position. Borrowing from the stock market, it is used to describe the stock price rise, which makes the short side unable to make up the position at a price lower than its selling price, so it has to chase up at a high level.

Short selling is a currency market term as well as a stock market term. To put it simply, it refers to the market situation that the mainstream funds in the market are strongly short, and investors are induced to conclude that the stock market will continue to fall sharply and panic selling through the obvious weakness of the disk.

Extended data:

Forcibly shorting is a repeated unilateral rise, which does not give those who sell stocks a chance to wait for a callback before buying. The characteristic of this market is that once the stock is sold, it is difficult to buy it again, because you always want to wait for a callback to reach a low point, but this callback will always stop.

Due to the long-term decline of the stock market, a heavy lock will be formed in the market, and the popularity will be exhausted in the quilt. But it is often at the moment when the market sentiment is extremely depressed, which just shows that the stock market is not far from the real bottom. It is worth noting that after four years of sluggish bear market, the systemic risk of a sharp decline in the index is very small. If you are excessively bearish on the market outlook, it is inevitable to fall into a new bear market trap.
