Summary
SPDN is not the largest or oldest way to short the S&P 500, but it’s a solid choice.
This ETF uses a variety of financial instruments to target a return opposite that of the S&P 500 Index.
SPDN’s 0.49% Expense Ratio is nearly half that of the larger, longer-tenured -1x Inverse S&P 500 ETF.
Details aside, the potential continuation of the equity bear market makes single-inverse ETFs an investment segment investor should be familiar with.
We rate SPDN a Strong Buy because we believe the risks of a continued bear market greatly outweigh the possibility of a quick return to a bull market.

Summary
The S&P 500 is in a bear market, and we don’t see a quick-fix. Many investors assume the only way to navigate a potentially long-term bear market is to hide in cash, day-trade or “just hang in there” while the bear takes their retirement nest egg.

The Direxion Daily S&P 500® Bear 1X ETF (NYSEARCA:SPDN) is one of a class of single-inverse ETFs that allow investors to profit from down moves in the stock market.

SPDN is an unleveraged, liquid, low-cost way to either try to hedge an equity portfolio, profit from a decline in the S&P 500, or both. We rate it a Strong Buy, given our concern about the intermediate-term outlook for the global equity market.

Strategy
SPDN keeps it simple. If the S&P 500 goes up by X%, it should go down by X%. The opposite is also expected.

Proprietary ETF Grades
Offense/Defense: Defense

Segment: Inverse Equity

Sub-Segment: Inverse S&P 500

Correlation (vs. S&P 500): Very High (inverse)

Expected Volatility (vs. S&P 500): Similar (but opposite)

Holding Analysis
SPDN does not rely on shorting individual stocks in the S&P 500. Instead, the managers typically use a combination of futures, swaps and other derivative instruments to create a portfolio that consistently aims to deliver the opposite of what the S&P 500 does.

Strengths
SPDN is a fairly “no-frills” way to do what many investors probably wished they could do during the first 9 months of 2022 and in past bear markets: find something that goes up when the “market” goes down. After all, bonds are not the answer they used to be, commodities like gold have, shall we say, lost their luster. And moving to cash creates the issue of making two correct timing decisions, when to get in and when to get out. SPDN and its single-inverse ETF brethren offer a liquid tool to use in a variety of ways, depending on what a particular investor wants to achieve.

Weaknesses
The weakness of any inverse ETF is that it does the opposite of what the market does, when the market goes up. So, even in bear markets when the broader market trend is down, sharp bear market rallies (or any rallies for that matter) in the S&P 500 will cause SPDN to drop as much as the market goes up.

Opportunities
While inverse ETFs have a reputation in some circles as nothing more than day-trading vehicles, our own experience with them is, pardon the pun, exactly the opposite! We encourage investors to try to better-understand single inverse ETFs like SPDN. While traders tend to gravitate to leveraged inverse ETFs (which actually are day-trading tools), we believe that in an extended bear market, SPDN and its ilk could be a game-saver for many portfolios.

Threats
SPDN and most other single inverse ETFs are vulnerable to a sustained rise in the price of the index it aims to deliver the inverse of. But that threat of loss in a rising market means that when an investor considers SPDN, they should also have a game plan for how and when they will deploy this unique portfolio weapon.

Proprietary Technical Ratings
Short-Term Rating (next 3 months): Strong Buy

Long-Term Rating (next 12 months): Buy

Conclusions
ETF Quality Opinion
SPDN does what it aims to do, and has done so for over 6 years now. For a while, it was largely-ignored, given the existence of a similar ETF that has been around much longer. But the more tenured SPDN has become, the more attractive it looks as an alternative.

ETF Investment Opinion

SPDN is rated Strong Buy because the S&P 500 continues to look as vulnerable to further decline. And, while the market bottomed in mid-June, rallied, then waffled since that time, our proprietary macro market indicators all point to much greater risk of a major decline from this level than a fast return to bull market glory. Thus, SPDN is at best a way to exploit and attack the bear, and at worst a hedge on an otherwise equity-laden portfolio.

Things happen for a reason is something I believe in. I also believe that I am the person I am because of my life experiences.Furthermore, I also believe things happen for a reason in your online business.Light At The End of the TunnelMy hope in sharing my story is so others who have suffered a similar fate in their online business may be able to see hope and a light at the end of the tunnel. “I am not what I ought to be, I am not what I want to be, I am not what I hope to be in another world, but still I am not what I once used to be, and by the grace of God I am what I am.”? John NewtonBeing aware of many ways to make money online and to start your online business in every conceivable niche?-?every top achiever flaunting their secret methods to their success through training programs/schemes.Similar ExperiencesSo perhaps your experiences are similar to mine as I have tried various money-making schemes/get rich quick schemes over the years.The top achievers at the time when I got interested in starting an online business, seem to make it sound so easy. Therefore embarrassingly I admit, I foolishly fell for their promises.Now being naturally curious, passionate, go-getter, my attitude was that even if I only achieve half of what they are promising?-?I will be successful.I wanted to succeed in my online business. I stubbornly with all enthusiasm and optimism, steadfastly pursued my goals of building an online business.Sadly I have to admit all my attempts to start an online business were in vain and I never achieved any real success.’twenty-twenty hindsight.”twenty-twenty hindsight.’ – is we have a perfect understanding of a situation or events only after they have happened.So with this ‘twenty-twenty hindsight.’ I have noticed I have subconsciously been sabotaging my life and my online business for many years.Like most people, I have continuously been trying to better my life, meaning to improve my work circumstance and income prospects.So with this perfect understanding of a situation, after it has happened, I have decided to share my discovery.Starting Online BusinessesI have always attempted starting online businesses to run alongside the day job. My hope to earn some extra money leading to slowly build this side business into a full-time income.As I have always thought to have my feet well-grounded. I didn’t expect to get rich quick. I believe in hard work. So needless to say I expected to work hard and therefore succeed irrespective of how long it may take.However, I didn’t expect to get caught up in the get rich quick programs or schemes. Not that I was falling for these ideas per se. I wanted to work hard and build a business. It was difficult/impossible to prevent getting involved in a get rich quick scheme. They were all over the internet at the time.Methods and TrainingNow at the time, every success story seemed to be offering their techniques, secret methods and training. So even not interested in getting rich quick schemes, I was inevitably lead down these roads.Therefore as an entrepreneur trying to start an online business, I tried to follow various business models. So overwhelmed by the considerable learning curve and the wide variety of information available online.I found myself struggling to know what information was useful, which training program to follow and implement?Eventually, this was so overwhelming. Including being unsure of who to trust or follow got me unintentionally caught up in the get rich quick schemes which inevitably led to failures.Therefore every time I would fail in starting an online business, I would regard it as a lesson learnt and then optimistically move on to the next opportunity to start an online business.However, the result being I gave up on my dreams and goals of online business. Over the next few years not even looking at business ads or anything resembling a business opportunity.Usually, I would switch offThen while scanning through YouTube and watching a few videos and suddenly an ad popped up in the middle. Usually, I would switch off and wait for the ad to finish so I could continue to watch the video.However, to my surprise, something caught my attention. I can’t remember exactly what it was. However, I think I was taken back by the calm, confident and authentic manner in which this person spoke felt I could trust what this guy was saying.Where I was in my lifeI listened to the advertisement intently and subsequently, responded. It had spoken directly to where I was in my life at the time. Well, one thing led to another, and I followed the links loving everything this opportunity had offered.So my attention was captured. They didn’t try to sell me all the time. Resulting in me feeling like I was being screened or interviewed to find out if I would be a good match for the business model. It seemed as if they were trying to identify if I would put their teaching and training into action.A win-win situationTherefore It seemed to me the business was interested in me succeeding as much as I wanted to succeed. and I think the business should benefit from the training they are providing. This is exactly how I believe all business should be?-?a win-win situation.So the solution to me not Subconsciously Sabotaging my Life & my Business was I needed an honest mentor that would truly be interested in my success as much as I am interested in my success and in the process will train and mentor me to succeed.This program is going to mentor me in the strategy of building a business and a life I wanted to achieve around the interests I already have.Their business strategyTherefore it seemed clear to me that this business wasn’t interested in training me to push their products. Rather they would train me in their business strategy to apply to any niche, market, hobby, interest or anything for which I have a passion.So if you resonate with anything I have mentioned, then I want to introduce you to my mentors, by offering you a free three-part video training. You will see first hand what training and primarily how the training is delivered.You will be able to try before you buy. However, you do not have to commit to anything, enter your email and name, and the videos emailed out to you.However, with twenty-twenty hindsight, I realised that I needed was a good mentor.Well, how do you determine what is a good mentor? So how do you determine who is a good mentor?However, you need to be aware as it is never going to be perfect, but there are things you can look out for to arm yourself to make better decisions.Firstly find a mentor who has already achieved what you are trying to accomplish yourself or what you are setting out to achieve yourself.Let me pass on my experience so that you don’t make the same stupid and costly mistakes.Therefore with twenty-twenty hindsight, I am now able to see and understand a situation after the situation has occurred.Someone who has achieved Therefore this mentor should be someone who has achieved and teaches from their experience what you need to do and how you need to do it.Hopefully, this mentor will still actually be doing the things he/she is teaching you in their own business. Therefore you will not be wasting time on an activity hoping it is going to work.What has truly amazed me from being involved with my mentor is the depth of insight and wealth of experience to which I have access.Whole communityI also have access to a host of mentors and a whole community of similar-minded people all very willing to encourage and support each other along their journeys.Additionally, I have discovered many little tweaks which made all the difference, and that is exactly where the experience is most valuable. For these little tweaks may have taken me years to discover myself, or perhaps never find.So if you are tired of going it alone, perhaps you are also overwhelmed by where to start with a business online. If you are teachable and willing to be successful, maybe you are the right person for this mentor program.I am not here to convince you either way?-?you make your mind up.So now you have nothing to lose. You have to enter your name and email so that the videos emailed to you and will also be put on my subscription list so I can keep in contact with you and send you helpful information on building an online business from the things I learn and input in my business.However, if you want to unsubscribe. No problem there is an unsubscribe link on every email. We are entirely against spamming, and that is why you will also have to verify you want to receive the emails before you get the videos.The video training is to show the quality of the training, the content offered, ease of understanding, implement, and delivered.Benefit from the valueI can assure you will understand the moment the video starts. You will benefit from the value given for free, so take notes and implement your new knowledge.Therefore you must agree that it makes sense to learn from top achievers.It also makes complete sense to learn from people who have indeed achieved what you are trying to achieve, right?So take the mystery out of marketing and learn the proven process that is working for thousands.More importantly, stop Subconsciously Sabotaging Your Life & Your Business.You can do this.P.S. When you see this you will instantly recognise them & know why they can help you as they helped me.Therefore online marketing should be fun and it should be profitable and you should get the support you deserve.This online community will support you and teach you the exact step-by-step process you need to succeed online.Thus there is no confusion and no pie in the sky or guessing games.
