Seems like you and I look at it a little differently. I have been thinking that I might be able to improve returns a little by keeping a small margin position at all times, making 12% or more on funds borrowed at 8%. Of course, now might not be the best of times to utilize this approach, with the possiblity of more moves by the FED over the next 9 months. I am not heavily margined, just thought that with all the talk about margin calls in the press, now might be a good time to get a good discussion going on the subject.
