Thesis
When major funds publicly unload a massive position, it usually signals a lack of confidence in a quick recovery and creates a heavy ceiling over the price. Constant, heavy selling from institutions has to be absorbed by regular buyers, which is extremely difficult without crashing the price. This type of institutional distribution often kicks off a prolonged downward trend, making it a prime setup for a short trade.
