Assuming it is GLW, for discussion...

It could work out for GLW to use this strategy, but I remember DELL selling puts and getting stuck with buying back its own shares at prices higher than the market price. With the market volatility that we have been experiencing you can make an argument for either case as to if this is a good idea or not, depending on the day you make the argument.
