To Dick and Pete, since both of the previous messages set forth the same positive slant on a bear (short) fund.

It all sounds so nice, assuming that the market drops. I'm curious if you have a mental "stop loss" for the bear funds, should the market keep going up.

Best wishes,

I2

USPIX update - or "oh-no, my hedge is disappearing" <g>
Refer to the 2/8/00 update:

Message 12814389

Today's month to date update:

USPIX -28% -3095
PBHEX 32% 3203
MNNCX 20% 1952
RSEGX 27% 2712
VWEGX 22% 2235

total 14% 7008

NASDAQ is up 15% this month. The aggressive mutual
fund portfolio with a 50% hedge is up 14%. The bottom line
is that by using a hedge, you are not tempted to sell your
long term holdings when the market is at high risk.

FWIW, Dick
