I wondered what idiot was selling me my puts. -g- The JOE board, for example, had several posts outling analysts that had come down to the panhandle and toured JOE's projects under cover just to see what was going on. I seriously doubt KIM ever gets out of NYC to see the real world.

If this Citigroup guy is writing homie puts at current book value, he is going to be fired next year for not knowing anything about homebuilder cycles, or cyclical industries.

On the Fox shows this weekend most seemed to call this a buying opportunity for the market and several even called an even better buying opportunity for beaten up homebuilder stocks. Most also thought oil was going lower with one discussion where the consensus of the majority was that oil prices are being manipulated. Consensus thinking like this could be setting up for some sharp quick rally then a plunge to much lower levels come Sept-Oct.. Housing will only get much worse, geopolitical unknowns rule the day and hurricane season just around the corner. So many excuses to create a crash in the market during the most likely time for it to happen. Then tech, pharmaceuticals and the like save the day for a year end Santa Claus rally<g>
