Health is man’s lifetime wealth. Keeping the body healthy and strong must be part of every individual’s priority. As you can see, having a physically fit body enables an individual to do his tasks effectively without any delay. Moreover, it allows him to persevere and do his best towards the realization of his goals and dreams. Keep in mind that having a healthy body is the only key for survival and so it must be given with much attention.If the body is weak, the mind cannot do its task well. And if the mind is not working, the body becomes weak and seems to have lost its energy. These are just the effects if an individual’s body and mind is not coordinated. This is what happens if all the aspects that make up an individual are unhealthy. There has been health news of people experiencing health illnesses due to stress, over fatigue, depression, living a sedentary lifestyle and having habits that are hard to break. They are better known as people who are abusive and just takes for granted their health.When an individual experiences health illnesses, the body as well as the mind are not working well due to the rapid spread or attack of viruses and bacteria inside the body. If an individual has a weak immune system, definitely it will be easy for the unknown viruses to harbour inside the different body organs and thus will lead to death if left untreated. It is sad to hear that many have been left untreated with their illnesses due the reason that there is no cure for the disease or there are no enough financial resources that will fund for the hospital expenses.The problem with most individuals right now is that they take for granted the chances of making the body healthy. Aside from that, they do not take into consideration the consequences of their actions for instance when they smoke. Smoking brings different health illnesses and is one of the major factors that contribute to the development of a disease.If you are greatly concerned over your health, you must learn to value it. Be open to changes and open your doors for different health activities such as exercising, being actively involved in a certain sport and performing simple relaxation techniques.

One click and all sorts of health news and updates will be seen and laid right in front of you.As of this point, it is already very dangerous to get sick. It is more stressful when we deal about expenses and how we could ever find cure. It is really important that you pay attention to all the dimensions of your life.

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.
Put a gear stick into R position, (Reverse).

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.
