Exercise put to go short? Q and R said I could, but then could not find the stock for me. It was ZITL over 20, naturally. -- Shoe

Scottsdale said I couldn't and they could find the shares. (AOL)
(I am short ZITL too). I decided to "cover" the short created by the
exercised put and short with a separate order. More of a pain, but got lucky to make a nice profit on that "switch".

Thanks,
Joe
