Co-rect, captain, on the 2x and 3x bear (or bull) funds. If you could get a cheap borrow on them, it would be a good trade to, say, short both a bear and bull fund in the same thing and keep it balanced, and milk the decay of the rotting heap. Use the 3x guys. More rotting decay of the heap.
Ha ha, I tried that a few years ago by shorting $200k on both FAS and FAZ. Fido has them for free to borrow. And what I found is that there is no human possible way to get them in balance on $ term at the end of the day. My finger and calculation is not fast enough to execute the order that is need to balace the long and short right before the market close. I end up net longing something everyday and depending on the next day action, I can loss all the money I gain by shorting both because I was net long the wrong direction. So I end up giving up after 5 days and making some lunch money (out of pure luck..I could have net longing the wrong direction and loss my lunch money). It
