<I added the puts to create positive convexity in my portfolio not for monetary gain.>

Could you please explain what positive convexity means in the context of an equity portfolio?

I've heard of the term applied to a fixed income portfolio (higher interest rates = shorter duration would mean positive convexity), but I don't know how the concept can be applied to an equity portfolio.
