Covered at 130 3/4 for an incredibly wild profit!! I'll wait for the dead cat bounce and short again. SHORT TO ZERO! It's interesting tho- the stock is at 106 right now, and the sep 130p are at 25.. No time premium at all.. Not that I cared. :)

My take is that the leadership (which includes Amazon, Yahoo, AOL, Dell, IBM, Cisco) has finally broken down. This makes me think that we have transitioned from a correction (like 1994) to a cyclical bear market (like 1990) where the major averages could decline 20% or more. I could be wrong and this could be a final washout (Putt/call ratio is as high as last October), but considering the simultaneous break of these issues after a quiet opening, I think the disciplined policy is to step aside and preserve capital. There will always be something to buy.
