      Using ETFs to Get Short in this Volatile Market
      SP600 has been stronger than the Ru2000. Why choose it?

      TWM, 2x inverse Russell 2000, was up 3% while the index was down 2%, and down 5% while the index was up 2%. Then, later in the day BOTH index and inverse ETF were negative. SDD was behaving simililarly. That's not good.

      Small caps have underperformed on the way down, but they're also bounced harder.

      John, isn't the problem that Dr. Hussman's model is long term. So long in fact, that we cannot evaluate Dr. Hussman's performance as of yet. After all, Dr. Hussman has not completed even one cycle, peak to peak. Will we ever be able to judge Dr. Hussman's performance? After all, it's entirely possible that Dr. Hussman is experiencing a period of bad luck, and yet Dr. Hussman's model could yet turn out to be the epiphany of econometric models?
