Do you really think that Q will be seriously affected in a crash? It would have to lose more than half of its market cap before I start to lose money. I would see it as a buying op. How does the gizmo define a crash? Granted, there is a lot of tulip mania out there, i.e., companies with no earnings worth more than established profit generators, IPOs that simply don't make sense, etc. However, I don't see Q in this light. It has what may become a franchise, has real increasing earnings, high profits and superior management. It is transforming itself from a manufacturing co to one that concentrates on royalties and research. How could it be seriously affected in a crash?
