Hedging the XLK portfolio Hi, Dennis: Your idea of owning the XLK and short the out-of-money call is not a bad idea. My suggestion would be adding a short DIA (Dow Jones Depository Receipts traded on the Amex) component to the position. The XLK can be expected to move in conjunction with the Dow Jones on the upside, but shorting the DIA would remove all downside risk to the position. Any comments?
