Trading Places It's time for a growth rebound. The argument for growth rests on the reversion-to-the-mean concept. Overly simplified, the concept means that when stocks (or any asset class) outperform their historical average, that asset class enters a period of underperformance and vice versa. |

Bearish Options Strategies Whitney Tilson explains why he purchased put options on two tech-heavy indexes. As a general rule, I do not recommend buying options.

But in the case of long-term puts on the Nasdaq 100 and the Semiconductor Holdrs Trust, the risk-reward equation is simply too attractive. |
