If you don't have puts I wouldn't buy today. And I wouldn't short a thing unless we get a real good bounce. This could be it, though ...

As I said I guaranteed a good drop by selling some OEX puts yesterday.

Got enough other ones I'll do OK if this is the real one, but wishin' I hadn't done that. Now when you figure I'll be able to get into my broker to see what's happening to some of these issues ...

You know what I really like about this selloff today -- the timing -- right after INTC reported. I love it!!!
