Sell BUD. It is a small position with too much reliance on EM to make a meaningful impact right now. $431K; P/L -$51K. 2. Sell BAC. Also a very small position. Would rather re-allocate to KRE (regional bank exposure). $213K; +$112K. I think KRE is well positioned given the regulatory tailwinds, strength on Main Street, no FICC reliance etc. Just to maintain Fins exposure. It would top KRE up to $2MM. 3. MSFT, AVGO and Equinix — part of the data center theme. I think this theme has legs but MSFT and EQIX positions too small. Sell those. MSFT $508K. +$11K; EQIX $497K P/L +$4K. 4. - sell if it drops below $38. It is the Amazon of China. However it cannot seem to break higher due to margin concerns. $1.9MM; -$59K at current level.

The risk around retaliation is growing but if we can buy these calls with a 10% implied vol, I think these could work very well at the first sign of any reconciliatory comments from Washington. I would look to trade out of these if we get a bounce back to 2750 on SPX this week. If we don't get the bounce by Friday I would sell. Also to further clean up the portfolio I would recommend the following over t
