<ul>
<li>The theory is that stocks which are down hard FY-to-date by end-April end up being good sells because Australians will harvest their losses into end-June. </li>
<li>The idea is then to buy those oversold names and hold them for 30-40 trading days. That has worked 10 out of the last 12 years hedged vs ASX200.</li>
<li>This year, the "sold-down" list is very heavily weighted to miners. They have continued to fall since end-June so it's down. But hedged vs a basket of miners? It's up.</li>
