Scumbria: Re: "All, Two questions. Are we going to set a record high today? Why didn't I short Rambus?" Comment: 1. Looks like record closing high of $58 (?) could indeed get tested today! Probably successfully if both DJI and NAS end positively! 2. They always seem so obvious with 50/50 hindsight!

Scumbria, All, Two questions. Are we going to set a record high today? Not likely...given that the Feds are meeting today and that there now is talk of a 1/2 point hike. Why didn't I short Rambus? Because you did not have the cajones! But don't feel bad neither did anyone else on this thread. Its too bad....there is a ton of money to be made shorting RMBS. ted

Why didn't I short Rambus? Discretion is the better part of valor.

Scumbria, I just "shorted" RMBS. With stock at about 288 I bought 2 Apr200 puts at 10.5. Immediately entered a GTC to sell two of the 180's for 10 (they are about 7). Petz
