Good point but hedging the market has always been an aggressive safety strategy. A hedge fund may be short the airlines and long the oils in anticipation of prices going up. Usually they take several positions in stocks in the industry. They are not stock busters and looking to destroy companies. All it does is let them take a position and if it does not go the funds way, it gives them a hedge.
