With the gigantic number of AMZN calls set to expire profitably in less than 2 weeks (thanks prissy), many of which
were probably sold naked by Merrill, the timing would be perfect for AMZN to experience a great fall. Remember, the
easiest profits are always made when expiration time approaches.. (well, easiest if you are a high-profile analyst that
moves markets, and you wait until 1-2 days before expiration)


Could they not buy puts very close to expiration?? I am not sure what the regulations are on this.
