nachaparia anyone care to explain why its A ???
rcoyne Market-Neutral = Hedged against overall market moves
B is eliminated because a bet on market direction is directly exposed to market moves. C should also be eliminated because buying winners/selling losers does not hedge overall market conditions (recessions hurt winners as well as losers)
