October suprise coming? There may be proof. Look at Oct put options. [View All]

They are higher than normal. At least compared to Nov and Dec. This was reported on Whatreallyhappened.com. The article is here but the links don't work because you need an account to see them. However, you can get option chains anywhere. The put is a bet that the stocks are going down. Calls are bets that the market is going up. Usually they are fairly even unless bad or good news is expected. DIA is an option for the Dow market. QQQQ is option for Nasdaq. This is what happened to United and American Airline stocks in the Sept 2001 market. October is historically a bad month. But so far nothing on the radar to suggest a big drop. Everyone on TV is expecting a lot more upside in the markets.
