We could see a doubling of almost all near-in-the-money puts tomorrow. S&P futures down hard at this moment, the market collapse will continue in asia tonight and bank closures around the world are just a step away. I can no longer tell if Asia is following us or we are following them. They use to follow us. Glenn

>>There is no question at ALL in my mind that amazon will be below 100 dollars at the close tomorrow. My entire portfolio is currently held in the Sep 130 puts. I have no other holdings of any kind, except a small"cash emergency" fund that I never touch. OtherChap, Yahoo thread, April 7, 1998...Yahoo closed earlier that day at split-adjusted $48.625: I have never felt more confident about a short position in my life. If you will recall last week I shorted the stock at 98 [49], not quite at the peak but close enough.. I invested every penny I had, leaving only a small amount of upside potential in my margin balance to keep me from getting a call should it rise a bit. Message 3994750
