I'm looking at ZITL September puts based on the likely new DC financing. If ZITL gets crunched like GOTK, HMSC, etc. in this deal, the odds it will fall under 5 are pretty good, hence the September 5 puts for 9/16 are good leverage.

OTOH, a safer play is in-the-money September 10's at 3 1/4 or the 7.5's at 1 9/16.

Care to hazard a guess how far down ZITL could crash from here?
