      Even more volatile than triple-witching days are the "quadruple-witching" periods, which occur every June. Each June, the Frank RussellCompany reconfigures the Russell 2000 index, which is a barometer for small-cap stocks. There is considerable added trading activity in stocks that areadded to the index, as well as stocks that are de-listed from the index.Typically, index fund managers dump stocks that are de-listed from theRussell 2000 and buy newly listed stocks. However, in conjunction withtriple witching, very strange things can happen. Therefore, if you aretaking advantage of the Russell 2000 listed/ de-listed play, be verywatchful and very careful. If the stock that you are trading starts runningfor the money in the direction of your trade, hold on. If it starts runningagainst you, re-evaluate... quickly.
