I think you can still find stocks to put if you wanted to play the downside. Priceline is up ¬ or something today, and cmgi looks pretty weak to me, and (surprisingly) etoys. Etoys is getting options on friday, thats great! I am bullish on etoys this year. Again I'm not quite sure why they aren't participating in the rally today but I'll look into it before I buy any etoys. Anyway back to you and your puts, I have some puts I bought last week which was a bad call for me (20 contracts only) but I am holding on because I am seeing some stocks hit an upside wall - gnet needs to break 71 to the upside for example and if we don't get that by labor day we may just retest the lows on some of these. Not the big names though. So I think you could have done well with puts if you stuck with the dogs instead of amazon and yhoo, fwiw.
