I have Dec 18 puts vs Nov 16 puts (position from about a month ago) and today i put on the Nov Dec 16 callspread.

First trade has been hairy but I think it's a good one now. If he bids before downside skew will be very high. It's not easy to do a 5billion dollar LBO, especially for a declining company, so markets should discount his ability to close.

AAPL touches $554 at some time next week (my neutral delta). And yeah, there is money riding on that prediction.

Got it today.
