European stocks tanking - Germany was down about 10 percent and is driving the rest of Europe. A combination of Bankin credit risks and apparently dislike for the new regime in Germany.

Hi Patrick -- did not log on last night

Probably would not have been of any assistance to you anyway--since I rarely use the globex for trading.

I posted to Don that my inclination was to sell some OEX puts into weakness this am--the premiums are very rich and I'd like to capitalize on this. Obviously high risk in that it could break-down and cost me dearly--but the odds favor a bounce of sorts. Will need to monitor it carefully.

You may be best off not to have any open positions since you can't really watch the market.
