Typically that would be seen as a bullish sign; that investors were laying down bets on a recovery in the sector hit hardest by the year-old credit crisis. Yet some option experts cautioned against taking that activity at face value because a hefty portion of that volume came from traders selling near-term call positions, a trade that may well be a bet on more trouble ahead for banks, brokers and insurance companies.
