Marc, re: "I want a high cash level now so I can quickly move to a much more heavily hedged and/or somewhat short position should Bob's call or my concern for market conditions warrant."

How much more quickly does a high cash level now permit you to move to a "much more heavily hedged and/or somewhat short position"? I don't understand the relationship.

With about 20 stocks and mutual funds, I believe I could move entirely to cash in about 20 minutes for the stocks and less than a day for the mutual funds. Shorting might take another 10 minutes. Hopefully that will be quick enough in an "emergency". Otherwise, I will gradually pare my holdings if the market rises.

Regards, Gary
