Mag:The [Nov.] put writers got their clocks cleaned last month. [or so I thought] /

E:I didn't...


I was referring to the Put writers of the 36,060 AMDWU (06 Nov 22.50) Puts that closed $1.05 in the money.

The writers of the 12,000 AMDWD (20.00) and 7,000 AMDWW (17.50) contracts made out ok.

But 43,000 Nov Put contracts expired in the money. Those writers weren't going "Cha-ching."
-- Unless they shorted at $25.50+.
Still, the AMDWU writers gave up $1.00/sh.

If I have any of this wrong, please enlighten me.

Today we have 54,000 AMDXD (06Dec 20 Puts) Contracts with 40K written in the past 36 hours. Is the same thing going to happen to these writers as happed to the AMDWU writers?
