I have often wondered if those folks are sometimes insulated from what’s actually happening in the world. Feeding on each other locally per say.

Don’t short PG-—at least not now, today, you’ll be liable to pay out a .71/sh dividend in a few days, the 17th or the 18th.

*And* the puts will have embedded the expectation that the common will drop that 70 cents as soon as the stock goes ex.

Wait a few days.
