204 put contracts on WDC sold today at a strike price of $25 for next October, selling for $1.22 - $$1.24. The buyers of these puts are worried that the stock could drop well below $25!and are willing to pay the insurance premium, $1.22, that will allow them to force someone else to buy it from them at $25. I think there is probably concern about WDC cutting the dividend.

Holding my WDC shares for now. If it drops I would probably consider selling cash secured puts for October at $25, before I would buy more shares outright. WDC has to stablize before I consider buying more shares.
