The reference to the UIT and the stock thing has to do with it being optionable. Since it is neither and it is not a futures contract, it is by definition not optionable. At least that is my thinking. I couldn't find the on line prospectus as it had been several days since I looked at this "dog" so I just quoted the PR. Both illustrate the weighting. Rather odd, don't you think? I wonder if this is as you said a disposal instrument (you know they loaded up for that Christmas Internet Basket promotion which flopped). Kind of like front running their customers only getting burned at it <vbg>. Matt
