[quote=Anonymous]Need your help DCUM. Walk me through how bad this is or isn't. DH took out shorts (1300 shares) in 2020 against the DJIA index, using 1500 shares of DJIA as leverage. Needless to say, the market has not crashed since 2020, quite the opposite. The shorts have an unrealized loss over 300k and gaining at this point. He says this is "safe" because the one hedges against the other. My thought is--after holy hell, what were you thinking?! I can't believe you actually did this -- is you still lose the DJIA shares + opportunity cost + what else??[/quote]
