It's probably those guys who where responsible for the 9000% increase in put-options buying on United & American Airlines the week before 9/11/01. There was an extremely abnormal balance on the put-call ratio, about 20:1 whereas normal is about 1:1 or in extreme cases 2:1; never seen it this lobsided before. Anyway, someone left about $10-15mil in profits on the table from those trades; would've been a little suspicious to cash those puts in after 9/11. Wouldn't surprise me one bit if they're up to something again... <img src="graemlins/nono.gif" border="0" alt="[nono]" />
