Lehman's Options Plays Suggest Fear

Stock quotes in this article: LEH  

As UBS's Schorr adds, the capital-raising efforts in the spring should "put to bed any concerns of a possible re-enactment of the Bear Stearns saga."

So for now, it doesn't look like lightning will strike twice. In my view, Lehman will remain as a survivor, and those puts will expire worthless.
