Ñ, I guess I leaped before I looked too deeply. I shorted all three today for roughly equal dollar amounts (20K total) Well see how this strategy works out. One question I have is regarding the timing of the deletions. While the June 30 date is established, what leeway do the index funds have to divest themselves from stocks no longer in the index. 1 day? 10 days? Granted all three stocks are already beaten down on their own merits, selling pressure from the index funds would be a good time to cover. chetser
