1. If you're very sure the market will tank SHORT TERM, only rational response is to sell the value stuff now, which is primarly chosen to appreciate LONG TERM and can be purchased cheaper later.

2. If you're very sure the market will appreciate you should cover your short.

3. If you're not so sure (which apparently you're not) some form of heding is appropriate. The form of hedging you chose makes perfect sense because of the reseacrh you presumably put inot the stocks you bought. Hopefully your research means that your stocks will ourpferm the overall market, in good times or bad, so why sell them unless category 1 applies?

I don't see much else here.

Any comments about PGP? Very preliminary research suggessts PE is 2 and insiders boght a boatload of shares at current levels.

Good Investing.
