 I have been shorting SPY to hedge my largely tech portfolio. Not a pure hedge but it has been working.  Michael Murphy in Barron's presents essentially the same strategy using S&amp;P puts. If the market goes up I will short more and will go net short at S&amp;P around 96 or 97 . THis way I can keep my protfolio of long term holds intact and protect myself from any major downturn.  What do you SI stock mavens think of this?
