Marcus, there is another question that I have about these funds especially the short ETF funds and that is does a dividend get taken away from a fund that is short some index.

If you are shorting a stock and a dividend gets paided, you have to fork up the dividend if you are a short holder.

Amd it appears that EFTs are paying dividends on the long side, my question has to be, do you loose a dividend by holding a short fund?

Example, did QLD holders loose a 5 percent dividend while QID holders gain one?

anyone having the answer to this please reply.
