Company is short Feb 15 puts.

Last week, as RAIN showed continued strength, I began to wonder whether the company would be eager to buy stock at $15 (via assignment of their short puts).

Given that the $100,000,000 debt offering was cancelled, I figured that the company would be thrilled if they didn't use up precious capital for a share buyback. If RAIN closes above $15 at Feb expiration, the company would be off the hook.

Perhaps the recent rally has more to do with fundamentals, but in my business, we learn early to be cynical.
