From Barron's 8-6-07:
"Early in the week, financial-sector volatility slid, and traders who had bet that would happen made money -- if they were fast enough to close short-volatility positions before volatility rose again. By week's end, it was abating. Again.
The Street's trading recommendations have less to do with traditional volatility trading, and more to do with fundamental analysis of stocks. Recommended strategies include selling puts on mega-caps (stocks with market values of at least $40 billion), selling calls and buying stock.
Goldman Sachs, for instance, is advising clients to sell puts on these stocks.

Instead of shorting puts, how about some bearish put spreads to offset some of the volatility premium....because these stocks are going LOWER.
