    Even I know that you shouldn’t buy shares in a company that you’re (for whatever reason) sure will tank in the near future.

      Bonds are basically buying shares of a loan to the company, not stock in it. Different risk profile, but also risky if the head of the company is about to be indicated

      In that case you’d buy shorts or if you have an appetite for risk, a contract for difference (CFD) or options
