Put/Call One possibility, a bearish scenario, is that a considerable amount of index calls have already been exercised. A scenario I tend to discount because of the time that you posted that. The CBOE would not have data on yesterday's exercise until around 8 AM Est. So, the exercises would have to have been last week. On the other hand, the "straight up" run recently probably left a lot of put buyers holding the bag. Perhaps that's why the high ratio. I think that this run, no matter how the rest of this week plays out, will see a consolidation at the very least on Monday once everything is either exercised or "rolled out".
