The question is, what do you short against it, so that you can take up the market volatility and you can play spread? ... That's a spread trade that over the next four or five years, where if you expect a lot of market volatility, it makes sense to maybe put some of this kind of stuff on.

Because I think this is the third time these issues have come up. It's probably not going to be the last. Because there's going to be more market volatility, not less.
