I guess I can introduce stop-loss and other cautionary measures to prevent snowballing loss, but shorting is shorting… Wonder if I could resist the urge.

I disagree that FED lowering interest rate means stocks will be ballooning. Often, lowering rates mean the economy is bad enough to do that, so there has been instances where stocks went down with interest rates.
Also considering how most market participants are talking that rates are going to be lowered, I believe it is already priced in.
I definitely think you could see a temporary drop, for sure, because of the economy. But I would not want to bet on just how deep it would be, and how quickly it will end.
Remember 2020 when they shut the entire economy down? The stock market temporarily went into freefall, and then the Fed came out with the freaking bazooka and sent it right the heck back up. Well, that and the stimulus checks.
Covid was a black swan event, so no one envisioned both the lockdown and Fed intervention. There is no way it was priced in.
On the other hand, Fed lowering rates has already been talked about for years. High probability it was priced in.
