2-3 % not really enough for insurance ? AL I'm not really looking to hedge my energy holdings. I'm currently 85% cash and income funds. My energy stuff is just 11% and mostly Canadian. Still hanging with CFK NTO CLL. I sure wish I was all in for this latest surge in energy but I never saw it coming. I am making a gradual transition to income. I told myself last fall that if I can reach X portfolio value and generate a reasonable return, maybe 5.75%, then we can live very comfortably off the income. I am within 1/4 of 1% of X portfolio value so I may be selling off the rest before May. I'm really just trying to stick with the plan. I think there is a time for everyone to step away from the table and this is it for me. I'm past retirement age and spend too much time on investments. My wife reminds me of these two points on a regular basis. Best, John
