my guess is these option traders banked heavily on LEAPs and other longer-term options with stocks and indexes they expected Fed policy to have succeeded by now the third straight down year for Dow and S&P was not expected now a fourth is even less expected these guys use recent history for their models they dont factor in K-Winter and 60-yr SuperCycles another example of K-Winter clearing a bad forest it takes a toll on leveraged traders, big toll so brokers, mutual fund managers, option traders are being decimated in ranks / jim
