End

A lot of securities ended closing lower today. I made one small bet outside of my typical wheel-house by buying 10 Coca Cola $65 contracts expiring in about a month.

Why did I pick KO? Random luck. I was not really looking for KO but I noticed it shot up quite a bit. My bet is there is a floor, and that floor is going to be below $65 in about a month. Let's see how that goes!
