    BBUS/OZ are not investments as they are hedges.
    BBUS/OZ are not trading stocks as they are hedges.
    Hedges are insurance to mitigate times of uncertainty.
    Mitigate the downside whilst you trade the upside.
    Fundamentals don't matter when the US Fed buys junk bonds.
    The stockmarket is not the economy.
    The economic indicators are always lagging.
    Sheep don't react to lagging indicators.
    The bellwether appears when the real economy hits home or at least the back pocket.
    Sheep follow a bellwether.

    Moral of the story............. use BBUS/OZ to hedge the uncertainty and timing of the downside whilst you trade the shyte out of the upside.

    But.......... always remember that the stockmarket goes up by the stairs and down by the elevator. That is why hedging the downside is an important strategy.

    Cheers
