I understand your reasoning but it does not seem to fit with your strategy.
In fact, your exposure:
long +100% on SPY
short -2.1% XLU
short -2.7% XLE
long +3.7% XLI
...is still substantially long exposed to US equities, which from a macro prospective, I thought you wanted to avoid, given the risk of inflation, the 5th wave, ...
Hi Manny, yes that is correct, this sector portfolio is indeed long the market. I'm running this piece of my account as a benchmarked portfolio, while the rest of the account is intended to be an absolute return portfolio. The account still has a large allocation to cash as I mentioned a few weeks ago.
so you have allocated 2.7% short XLE and 3.7% short XLU. Correct?
If I understand it correctly,the percentages refer to capital allocation. So the rest of the capital is either cash or allocated somewhere else. Right?
Finally, as this is a short week in the US, would you close these positions (XLE and XLU) on Thursday morning?
Thanks John,
