I would guesstimate that if one invests 2/3 into dividend paying utes and energies, and 1/3 into a "double power" bear fund, the result would be prety good over the next year or longer. Maybe it's even better to be long those things with 90 - 95% - and commit the balance to being short SPX (or DOW) futures in equal nominal $$ values. Defensive instruments are likely to outperform, and the divs will help. And, since it is easy to buy international companies, this strategy also cuts down on the currency risk of being in dollars.
