You mean for BUYING PUTs and not selling them unless the turnaround is happening. Otherwise, I was thinking more of the entire industry being flat in price and earnings outcomes rather than XYZ percentages. For example, take the current GM strike. Those industries that feed the GM production machine is sucking wind now and facing a major blow to their earnings. Glass companies, steel, electronic components, plastics, etc. Well, that is an opportunity for buying PUTs for those companies that are going to be depressed until this strike is over and settled.
