From WSJ: "Elsewhere in the options market: - Some bearish traders bought a lot of puts on Amazon.com Inc., whose recent stock price trajectory has some traders scratching their heads. Put options increase in value when stock prices decline. The stock, down 4 13/16 to 94 1/4, rose from 46 1/4 in early June to a high of 104 3/4. The July 50 put gained 3/16 to 5/8 on volume of 1,540 contracts, compared with open interest of 2,234 contracts. The July 65 put gained 3/8 to 1 7/8 on composite volume of 1,906 contracts, compared with open interest of 4,053 contracts."
