Yup, that's the demand side. The MM's going to increase the price because everyone thinks this markets going down, and he's going to get his increase costs for that risk. This is the time you make money in the market by SELLING that risk. It's hard to do, but the options are way skewed, and premiums are really there for the asking.

Not to be dumb about this but while I am NOT buying puts, or shorting everything under the sun, I AM writing CC's. The premiums are good, and I think it's better to take in money and lose the stock if it continues to go up, than expend money via BUYING puts and watch them erode.
