Thanx Jim; Do you know any thing about
cboe.com
seems they have some options on mutual funds index, that
one might exploit ?
Back out the strategy.html and you'll get more.
I looked at the option table on LGO, and LIO , and
saw that they were not traded very much at all,
so it could be a dead end street.
If one bought some of these in an upturn ( in the money )
I wonder if when ex date comes they have to settle in cash
or not. Each index puts you in 30 funds, and I'd hate to
have a dab each of 30 funds to unload if I wanted to cash
out.

Hi Jim, I noticed that energy and gold funds did better this last week. Maybe we're finally seeing an end to the leaking. Here's what Vanguard's Energy Fund (VGENX) looks like with AIM's assistance:
