S&P's down 30? Like in three zero, not three point zero? Does this mean the Dow finally takes gas? About f------ time.

if you're spending your days only LOOKING at puts, it doesn't matter which ones essentially...-g- seriously, i ALWAYS play the same stocks, and mainly play the indices anyway. my list of stocks has NO particular characteristic making them better choices than others, except for the fact that i know them well and have a feel for how they're trading. so i have no idea that would now fall into the 'preferred target' category for reasons pertaining to the current situation, except maybe that i STILL believe the financials will get theirs, but the timing of that event has turned out to be very difficult. eventually though there should be home run material...as could be seen today, bank earnings are already deteriorating sharply.
