GZ---Thats correct for the short term trade. However, if you had sold yesterday after having for a year (?) the only better play would have been a long term capital gain. If you look at the value for SDS today, you will see you actually made more money today as the value of SDS increased to price after ex + divi < mkt val @ EOD. Peace
