My own strategy right now is ultra-bearish. I have a position in Rydex URSA, a fund that tries to mirror the RECIPROCAL of the S&P 500. In addition I have holdings in Rydex Precious Metals and a ton of Treasury Bills. The Ultra bulls try to pillory me for this but I feel it is appropriate at the moment. I will turn bullish at some point, when the consensus is predominantly bearish, "it can only get worse, why bother?" That will be the moment to buy stocks hugely but it is probably two years or more away. This is market timing in the worst way but for me the only appropriate slant. I don't have any energy positions but do think that APCC could be a good bet.
