I've always had a keen interest in shorting (probably about 40 percent short at the moment), and was wondering how others who follow a long/short strategy construct their portfolios in terms of
1) percent mix, 2) risk and sector exposure (e.g. only having long/short pairs of stocks in same sector) 3) ways to structure to work in both bull and bear markets
In bull markets, I find myself drawn to shorting highly volatile stocks because anything with decent fundamentals seems like a bad choice...but that accordingly increases the drawdowns in my portfolio
