>>>I still can't imagine why anyone would buy IBM puts to hedge INTC.

As a member of the "silent majority" here on SI, it is precisely a statement like the above that confirms my opinion of you as a dullard(I say this, of course, with all due respect).

"Imagine" IBM's position in the market.
"Imagine" the market is long overdue for a correction.
"Imagine" the money leaving IBM and going into Intel.

Now can you imagine why buying IBM puts is truly a great idea?
You can't, can you?
Thought not.
