Recommendation: Keep the stock and buy Aug $200 puts on the 8000 shares costing $6.50 or $52,000. Nothing has changed regarding their core business. Data center spending is not going to change based off this M&A transaction. However if I am wrong and the market further penalizes the stock at least our losses are contained. The stock has dropped $40 and I think we could easily recoup our premium if the market buys into the CEO's reason for the merger. If I never had a position I would absolutely buy the stock using options. I would be selling October $185 puts and buying Oct $220 calls costing 50c/share.

How many puts ? What are the alternatives. The fact tgat you iwn thd stock at a higher price is affecting your decision. Sorry. This is judt ridiculous!!! Would you buy the stock here .7777 If you would would you also buy puts ???

The stock is now down 16% on a deal that no one fully understands. The CEO has a good track record regarding mergers. So I think it makes sense to keep the stock and own protection for the next 35 days until we hopefully get more clarity from management.
