Short Sellers:

This strategy is based on the sale of securities that the fund manager considers overpriced in anticipation of buying them back at a lower price for a profit. For, example if a company's stock is highly priced compared to its historical value, or if its business model seems flawed, the Short Sellers fund manager may decide to short it.
