Am I the only one who really doesn't like to talk about short anything when it comes to personal assets? Or am I the only honest one here?

I would never make a comment about your financial assets. That is a very personal thing with everyone and not how I would measure someone's worth anyway. Thought you were being funny and I was trying to be in return. Sorry. |

Oh well. It is nice to make a decent call. It is a hell of a lot better to actually put money where ones mouth is after making the call. |

Just looked and there is action on USO puts as far out as July. The July 68 puts have some decent open interest and closed at 2.94. However, doesen't USO track oil company stocks, not the commodity itself? I don't know jack about commodities.

So July 68 meaning oil price of $68 by July? If so, that's what I was talking about. I bet if there were one year puts they'd be as low as $50.

The July 68's are at $3.20 on the ask side. If you held the option until expiration, you don't make money until the USO drops below 64.80. or a drop of 13.43%. Using the 1.5 to 2 ration, that would mean crude would have to drop over 18% or to $79 a barrell. I don't know if this makes any sense. If it is confusing the first time through, it probably will be everytime through and I wouldn't try to figure it out. Last edited by BYU71; 01-08-2008 at 02:44 PM. |
