many people buying the contracts as selling them...

$8 billion worth of contracts bought, and $8 billion sold.

The better question is what's happening to the price of those puts. If it's increasing then that could be cause for concern.

also, the tweet you linked to seems click-bait'ish to me... - zounami MU - 9/7 18:22:28

Did they buy puts or sell them? That makes a vast difference - Macgrantt MU - 9/7 16:01:41

A couple things... First, exercising an options contract is - zounami MU - 9/7 18:54:21

Every option trade, be it selling a put, or call, - Macgrantt MU - 9/7 19:03:00

That's incorrect. Options are just derivatives/contracts. (nm) - zounami MU - 9/7 19:06:31

Maybe to be clear, every options trade I've made. - Macgrantt MU - 9/7 19:09:53

ok, I thought you were saying every contract is settled - zounami MU - 9/7 19:39:13
