Quote from vertigo3:
maybe L.C. can clarify,
but I seem to recall at some time last year he wrote about risk controls at mutual funds, one of the controls being that once the market was down 10% from the closing price at the end of the previous year that some lightening of the load should occur.
I can't remember whether that was a 10% intraday, or whether it was 10% for the yea as of the daily close or... as of the close of the week.
10% down from the Closing price at the end of 2008 would be prints in the cash S&P under 813.
L.C. do you remember anything about this risk control measure?
