I was early when I sold my short funds at the end of February, but it ended up alright in the end. Adding more shorts to the short-only fund hurt returns, it fell 11.24%. The three funds with more bearish holdings gained 2 to 3%, while the fully invested ones returned almost 8 to 9%. The rally probably still has legs, but I think this is still a bear market. March's notable position change was to open or increase long positions in the U.S. dollar, and short positions in the euro, after the dollar's drop provided a nice entry point.
