Short selling FTS is an investing strategy that aims to generate trading profit from Fortis as its price is falling. FTS shares are trading up $0.67 today. To short a stock, an investor borrows shares, sells them and buys the shares back on the public market later to return it to the lender. Short sellers are betting that a stock will decline in price.
