Bob, do a search for the “profit opportunity #1” thread and you’ll see a good history of the big time gains you missed out on.
For the most part the ship has sailed on many of those shorting opportunities. I also don’t see any great opportunities for Put options anymore. However, don’t let RO scare you off, there is still a long way to go down for a lot of these stocks. I too am heavily invested in SKF and SRS. Look to pick them up during one of the market rallys like we saw this week. Then I recommend you sell off some portion (maybe 50%) when they approach their 52 week high.
