    Why does JPM have to unwind its position in the hedge right now ? Why not take time when the holdings improve?

    • Skull & Bones: JPM is NOT unwinding these positions now. They will gradually unwind the position over time.

    • natb: Seems to me that very little is really understood about JPM's hedges- with no pressure to unwind, I suspect the concerns are overstated?
