Re:Scox yesterday.... (Score 1)

Others have reported during past SCOX discussions that there are no SCOX options, either put or call. Using what others have replied (namely that selling short exposes you to unlimited downside whereas a put bounds downside to 100% of value), if you were so inclined to make a bet against SCOX I would recommend puts over going short. Going short is really not something for anyone other than professional (really institutional) investors. It can be very painful, and in the case of SCOX has been very painful. Stay away.
