I saw there are inverse funds at Trading 212. Their KIID reports show that they lose money almost all time. I just don't get what the point in equity that loses money. It seems that they are made to tackle market downturns, but their fees are really high. So high that they almost match mutual funds. And while they may work in short term, what's the point in investing them, when something like bonds, REITs (to some extent as they are generally lagging behind stock market) or P2P loans (from my experience, if you analyze performance and invest manually, they seem to be stable and generate at least 9.3% returns even during current crisis. At worst they would be 7% profitable, but that would take something more serious than C19) seem to be profitable during those same times? They seem to be going against general wisdom of buying and holding and since you can't predict bearish or bullish, even more time that precisely, I'm not really sure what's the point of them.
