short sell

short sell
  vendita allo scoperto
  Vendita di titoli in previsione di quotazioni al ribasso effettuata al prezzo corrente e senza il possesso dei titoli stessi, ma con l'impegno di consegnarli ad una data futura già fissata. La vendita allo scoperto è uno strumento piuttosto rischioso, poichè non sempre le aspettative si realizzano, ed è dunque vietata ai piccoli investitori e ai fondi che non rientrino nella categoria degli hedge funds.
