short selling

(FINANCE) borrowing securities for immediate sale, in anticipation of a sharp decline. Short selling requires strong nerves and excellent market timing; it also requires the ability to locate tranches of securities to borrow. If the short seller is correct, then she can buy back the securities at a much lower price, and lock in very high profits with very little initial investment.

Closely related to the concept of a short position. However, a short position includes buying put options (for example), while a long position could include short selling put options. So they are not exactly the same.

If a short sellers are wrong about the market, they are left hastily covering shorts, or buying the item they borrowed at a HIGHER price than they sold it for.

Jim Fisk was a master of the short squeeze; he appeared to cooperate with short selling until he was able to call in loans, forcing his counterparties to cover their shorts.

selling out

A band has “sold out” when their fans no longer get feel like part of an elite clique. This generally happens when a band attracts interest from a major label, who provides them with a higher recording budget, which results in just enough polish to make the band acceptable to a slightly wider audience; unfortunately, the better production generally reveals the band’s basic lack of musical talent, which hipsters could previously not see because it was hidden behind a blurry cloud of “lo-fi.”. What hipsters once assumed were “fractured pop songs” are revealed to simply be “bad pop songs,” and the hipsters aren’t smart enough to figure out why their favorite band suddenly seems to suck way more than before, so they blame it on “commercial production” and this mysterious and ephemeral force of “selling out.”

Hipster: Selling out to the corporate machine! Ahhhhhhhhh.

selling pudding pops

It's when you are under the influence of either alcohol or drugs and start to sound like bill cosby when he sells pudding pops ( slurring words, sounding inebriated)

Janet was so drunk last night everytime she spoke she sounded like she was selling pudding pops.

wife selling

The act of selling ones wife for money or services! Bringing her by a halter to a popular area in town for auction.

The following was an exchange between two New Hampshire gentlemen...wife selling at it's finest!

White Mike from Manchester: Rick, I will give you the house and all in it, including my wife, for your apartment. I only want to swap beds. Mine is EXPENSIVE! It's a squishy, puffy, cloud.

Big Dick Johnston: I will only do this if there is promise of your debit cards, loaded with $300 dollars each, and i keep your current cable plan, as well as you providing a new metal roof.

White Mike from Manchester: It will be done this Thursday. P.S. how i was with her...don't fall in bruh!

Selling Point

Referred to any feature that a company or entrepreneurial organization uses to greatly promote their product as a way to catch the attention of the customer.

Note that selling points don't always mean the product is good, as some companies tend to force selling points that wouldn't bring any benefit or generate any interest in the potential customer.

Jack: Hey, did you see that new Black Ops 4 trailer? It's so cool!
Kevin: Yeah, I saw it. Honestly, I don't like how the studio is using the "Battle Royale" feature as their selling point.
