Dear Subscribers,

All you have to do is look at today’s headline on Yahoo Finance, and it’s clear, stocks could be in trouble. 

It reads: Greenspan Warns of Likely U.S. Recession

We’re currently up over 200% in our Boston Properties (NYSE: BXP) March $130 puts (BXP-OF), but we’re not going to sell yet.  

 The current sell off could be just the beginning, and a landslide could ensue.  And, this will also bode well for our Simon Property Group, Tyson Chicken and Dow Diamond puts as well, as long as aiding our most recent position, calls in Goldcorp (NYSE: GG).

However, should BXP make a significant extended move in the next few days, we will likely close half of the position.

I will be in touch very, very soon!

Exit is everything,

Mark Whistler
