Shorting a German Bunds ETF involves the risk of potential losses if the ETF's value increases instead of decreases as expected. However, it can also provide the benefit of profiting from a decline in the ETF's value. It is important to carefully consider these risks and benefits before engaging in short selling.

Or you can invest in ProShares UltraShort S&P 500, ticker SDS, which is leveraged 2.5 to 1; thus if the S&P declines 1%, the ETF increases 2.5%. Good luck.
