Well, it was a fairly frantic first hour, but I’ve got myself repositioned way, way, way more conservatively.

  • Down to only 20 bearish positions with average expiration 140 days in the future (!!!) This is 50% of my entire portfolio;
  • One long position – IWM August $160 calls; this is 10% of my portfolio;
  • Cash – 40% (!!!!!!!!!!) of my portfolio
