Well, funny you should say that. Bloomberg.
S&P 500 options to protect against declines in stocks over the next year cost 22 percent more than one-month contracts, the highest since 1999, data compiled by London-based Barclays Plc and Bloomberg show. The gap shows concern that analyst estimates for record earnings by 2011 may prove exaggerated, endangering an advance that pushed the S&P 500 up 63 percent since March.
“It’s telling you that there’s severe anxiety about the future,” said Paul Britton, chief executive officer of New York-based Capstone Holdings Group LLC, which oversees about $1 billion. “People want to protect next year, and there’s a sense of urgency.”How did this happen? Who's to blame? Well certainly there are those more responsible than others, and they will be held accountable, but again truth be told, if you're looking for the guilty, you need only look into a mirror.
