That's assuming you can time it right. I've been holding puts for ~2 months, and I went from very right to very wrong very quickly. I also fully anticipate to be very right again as soon as the fed stops pumping trillions of dollars into companies that were ill prepared for risk.

I was mostly being sarcastic, but I think it's relevant to direct you to this article (found in top 50 on HN). https://thesoundingline.com/fed-slows-qe-unlimited-to-just-8....

I'm hesitant to say that they're going to stop buying, but there is at least evidence of slowing.

I just said be careful, they can pump and release at will. You can't predict when they will do it, it's better to wait for them to announce it and THEN take action.

This is not true. The mega-wealthy aren't needing to sell their assets because the Fed is doing unlimited QE. Since the mega-wealthy own most stocks, they don't need the liquidity when their "stable" investments are backed by the Federal Reserve's unlimited free money program. This is crony capitalism.

... The Fed hasn't bought a single share of stock.

This is not aging well.
