22% haircut on Friday 7/20 due to lower guidance for growth. I believe this is the death touch for the bulls.

This is precisely why I call pre-earnings a gamble. Before the report it was anyone's game, now it is more than clear where it is heading next.

All rallies should be shorted imo so I concur with the Death Touch

High growth stocks are beautiful to ride, until the growth slows down, then they are punished to no end.

In June I was modestly short via an OTM call credit spread. When it droped late June I looked to put on an August put spread. I did a debt 375/370 put spread for a buck before earnings. The idea was if earnings were reasonable to good I would then sell a farther OTM credit spread for something over the buck. And if earnings came in light I'd have a chance to make good cash. After the tank I just obviously cashed in.

Now I'm a bit stymied. I haven't a clue how far this turkey will drop. I could do a credit call spread but hesitate since it could rebound past my strikes. I could do another OTM debt put spread then create a condor but again right now I don't see where it might stabilize. Nothing but air below.
