How People With Bad Credit Can Get Auto Loans

Individuals are forced to avail poor credit car loans when their credit status is not up to the mark due to various reasons – the primary reason being not complying with the terms and conditions of existing loans and credit facilities. it is important to know that if one engages with a debt relief program, or files for bankruptcy, the credit scores will indicate the fact for as long as ten years. People can miss out on the monthly payments, and when that happens, the worst thing a person can do is “Do Nothing”. Ignoring the monthly payments would not solve the issue and worsen an already bad financial situation.Delinquency can lead to:* Big monthly late payment charges.* An increase in the rate of interest while availing credit facilities in the future.* The creditor sending the late or missed payment report to the credit bureau, which lowers the credit scores.* The creditor losing the borrower is confidence, which could result into litigations and lawsuits.Correcting DelinquencyIt is important not to panic if you have missed out on your monthly payment. The following suggestions may help you deal with your missed payment situation:* Call your car loan company offering auto loans for people with bad credit, and explain the financial hardship that has resulted into the default. Explain what is happened is a “One time happening” and it would not be repeated in the future, but it is difficult to pay right now, and you need some more time to redeem.* In case your loan provider would not allow you the “extra” time to repay, you could get in touch with your employer and ask for a cash advance against the monthly salary. Employers generally help out their employees, especially if they have been working for some time.* Alternately; one can also borrow partial amounts of the missed payment from friends and relatives, and pay off the creditor. People do not usually hesitate lending out small amounts of money, but are wary when approached for a bigger amount in the form of a “monthly” loan.* Check out if you have a couple of other bills whose payment can be delayed for some time. If that is possible, adjust the bill amount in paying off the missed payment, and the next month compensate by topping up the bill amount.Refinancing your Existing Car Loan or LeaseThe existing financial crisis can make it difficult for people to repay their bad credit auto loan monthly installments, and when faced with delinquency, individuals often feel if the monthly amounts are low and affordable, it is easier to make regular payments. One way of making this possible is by refinancing your existing car loan. One can refinance an existing mortgage loan, and refinancing an auto loan is not much different since the basics remain the same – the loan amount needs to be secured by some guarantee or collateral. In case of auto refinance, the car acts as a collateral. However it is important to have the exact depreciation suffered by the car and up to what amount the creditors evaluate the car. Availing an auto refinance can make loan repayment very easy, since the net payable rate of interest gets reduced, and the installment amount too is reduced to suit the borrower is monthly income or paycheck.Buying a Cheaper or a Used CarThere is another way of dealing with the situation if you feel you are likely to be delinquent, and it is not avoidable. New car loans involve larger monthly repayment amounts. If your car is current monthly installments are high, it is possible to sell of your car and buy a cheaper one, or even go in for a used car. In many ways it makes sense to sell the car, since it can help you to either repay the bulk of the total auto loan amount and thereby decrease your total outstanding amount, or else the person buying your car ends up redeeming the car loan. A good car loan lender can help you with this.

SPDN: An Inexpensive Way To Profit When The S&P 500 Falls

Summary
SPDN is not the largest or oldest way to short the S&P 500, but it’s a solid choice.
This ETF uses a variety of financial instruments to target a return opposite that of the S&P 500 Index.
SPDN’s 0.49% Expense Ratio is nearly half that of the larger, longer-tenured -1x Inverse S&P 500 ETF.
Details aside, the potential continuation of the equity bear market makes single-inverse ETFs an investment segment investor should be familiar with.
We rate SPDN a Strong Buy because we believe the risks of a continued bear market greatly outweigh the possibility of a quick return to a bull market.

Summary
The S&P 500 is in a bear market, and we don’t see a quick-fix. Many investors assume the only way to navigate a potentially long-term bear market is to hide in cash, day-trade or “just hang in there” while the bear takes their retirement nest egg.

The Direxion Daily S&P 500® Bear 1X ETF (NYSEARCA:SPDN) is one of a class of single-inverse ETFs that allow investors to profit from down moves in the stock market.

SPDN is an unleveraged, liquid, low-cost way to either try to hedge an equity portfolio, profit from a decline in the S&P 500, or both. We rate it a Strong Buy, given our concern about the intermediate-term outlook for the global equity market.

Strategy
SPDN keeps it simple. If the S&P 500 goes up by X%, it should go down by X%. The opposite is also expected.

Proprietary ETF Grades
Offense/Defense: Defense

Segment: Inverse Equity

Sub-Segment: Inverse S&P 500

Correlation (vs. S&P 500): Very High (inverse)

Expected Volatility (vs. S&P 500): Similar (but opposite)

Holding Analysis
SPDN does not rely on shorting individual stocks in the S&P 500. Instead, the managers typically use a combination of futures, swaps and other derivative instruments to create a portfolio that consistently aims to deliver the opposite of what the S&P 500 does.

Strengths
SPDN is a fairly “no-frills” way to do what many investors probably wished they could do during the first 9 months of 2022 and in past bear markets: find something that goes up when the “market” goes down. After all, bonds are not the answer they used to be, commodities like gold have, shall we say, lost their luster. And moving to cash creates the issue of making two correct timing decisions, when to get in and when to get out. SPDN and its single-inverse ETF brethren offer a liquid tool to use in a variety of ways, depending on what a particular investor wants to achieve.

Weaknesses
The weakness of any inverse ETF is that it does the opposite of what the market does, when the market goes up. So, even in bear markets when the broader market trend is down, sharp bear market rallies (or any rallies for that matter) in the S&P 500 will cause SPDN to drop as much as the market goes up.

Opportunities
While inverse ETFs have a reputation in some circles as nothing more than day-trading vehicles, our own experience with them is, pardon the pun, exactly the opposite! We encourage investors to try to better-understand single inverse ETFs like SPDN. While traders tend to gravitate to leveraged inverse ETFs (which actually are day-trading tools), we believe that in an extended bear market, SPDN and its ilk could be a game-saver for many portfolios.

Threats
SPDN and most other single inverse ETFs are vulnerable to a sustained rise in the price of the index it aims to deliver the inverse of. But that threat of loss in a rising market means that when an investor considers SPDN, they should also have a game plan for how and when they will deploy this unique portfolio weapon.

Proprietary Technical Ratings
Short-Term Rating (next 3 months): Strong Buy

Long-Term Rating (next 12 months): Buy

Conclusions
ETF Quality Opinion
SPDN does what it aims to do, and has done so for over 6 years now. For a while, it was largely-ignored, given the existence of a similar ETF that has been around much longer. But the more tenured SPDN has become, the more attractive it looks as an alternative.

ETF Investment Opinion

SPDN is rated Strong Buy because the S&P 500 continues to look as vulnerable to further decline. And, while the market bottomed in mid-June, rallied, then waffled since that time, our proprietary macro market indicators all point to much greater risk of a major decline from this level than a fast return to bull market glory. Thus, SPDN is at best a way to exploit and attack the bear, and at worst a hedge on an otherwise equity-laden portfolio.
