David Capablanca is a master short seller who offers incisive strategies and invaluable information about the short selling discipline. His ability to impart information is a credit to his vast knowledge and desire to educate others. Congratulations, David!
David is truly one of the most knowledgeable people in the smallcap world. Every episode is packed with valuable insights and feels like a masterclass you can tell he genuinely understands the market at a deep level. It’s rare to find someone who can both trade and explain things this well. Thank you, David, for continuing to share your knowledge and experience with the community.
Keep it up!
I have seen a tremendous growth in my shorting abilities and thorough understanding of the fundamentals being a part of FBU in my first year! FBU came highly recommended to me by a friend, and I’d highly recommend it to anyone looking to take that first step in the right direction!
Thank you, David! I met you in Miami in January. I appreciate your time and how accessible you are to traders who are trying to make it. Your material is excellent, and I’m really looking forward to your book.
I have known David since he started out, a nice guy and a good trader. It has been fun to watch him and his community grow over the years. Look forward to joining him at upcoming trading locations in the future.
