I think Alex Taher has a definite point. Over 6000 WDC Jun 15 puts bought the same day that WDC announces, after the market close, major problems. Whoever bought will have to justify their actions to the SEC (unless it was the market makers themselves, who bought. A market maker is apparently self-justified.). Even if the options were bought through Switzerland, Europe, wherever, I think the SEC will go after the buyers--for an explanation, at the very least. If I ever get rich enough, I'd like to start buying through Switzerland. It adds class, but you no longer have the secrecy/protection you had back in the 1970's or earlier days. Regards, Larry
