Hi Don,

Since Im now 96% cash, that would mean I have 18 more 5% positions if things go wrong.

Just to clarify when you say a 5% position in USPIX: since USPIX tracks twice the negative of the change in NDX, is this really equivalent to a 5% short position in the NDX, or 10%? In other words, if you were 100% invested in USPIX (I understand you'd probably never do this, just hypothetical to understand the math), would you really be 200% short, or should I divide by two when I calculate the size of a USPIX position?

BTW, congrats on yet one more timely call, and thanks for your really clear explanations of what you're seeing.

Regards,
Fund
