>>>check out the December KBHLJ/KBHLK 50 by 55 spread, credit of 1.75.<<<

I am currently showing $2.10 on that puppy.

What do I think???

1) Nearly all of the homies are up against the bottom of their 200 day lines - probably best to wait a day or two to see if they penetrate.

2) There has been some "warm" news the last few days. An upwards correction is excusable/expected.

3) The broad markets are starting to weaken. The dollar looks ugly. The Fed is leaning towards raising. Why plow money into the homies if we economy/broad markets won't carry the homies along??? That logic doesn't seem to apply.

4) I think that we are in Phase II of a short squeeze.

5) On most threads, someone comes around talking Fibonacci retracements - at least the bullish threads. I think that analysis should apply if the chart is turned upside down. We are due for a considerable retracemnet regardless of a short squeeze.

6) Tax loss selling??? These pups are still down for the year. The faithful shorts might be rewarded come mid December.

I think it is a reasonably good play on the fundamentals, especially if you are looking for a short entry point and don't mind becoming short the shares. I did this play with HOV for November, $30 X $35, and now I am sorry. Why not do the $55 X $60 for a $0.35 credit??
