Is there anyone on this planet earth stupid enough to think Greenspan would do something as unpopular as raising rates half a point, just days after he was re-appointed?

Is there ANYONE out there stupid enough to be holding puts?

If so, why dont you just flush your money directly down your toilet, instead of wasting your time playing in the market.

You guys are forgetting that the fed is a quasi-illegal cartel that is accountable to NOBODY. They are not a government agency, they are a collection of private banks.

They will NEVER do anything unpopular. They will never again do anything to give people a chance to start questioning their powers.

Greenspan's job is NOT to protect the economy. His job is to protect the powers of the fed. Anyone who thinks anything else is WRONG.

Buy the damn calls. Sell your puts or go broke. It's that simple. The game is rigged, and shorts will never win- because even when this bubble eventually collapes and destroys our economy, you won't be able to collect on your puts and the dollar will be worthless. Look for gold to be outlawed shortly thereafter.
