WS, Juno might be o.k. I'd want to check out fees, etc. vs the cost of a 90/10 approach using CBOE long bond options. I have always preferred the futures options due to liquidity, but for individuals, the CBOE is ok. Rydex has hit a gold mine with all these various indices. I don't see how they and Vanguard sell the S&P funds, with their large expense ratios, now that the Spyder offers much lower fees and the opportunity to short and trade intraday. To me, it would seem that there is no there, there for the S&P funds. But for some of the other indices, such as bonds, these funds may offer something that is needed. MB
