CS

Hi folks. How to best short CS as I see discrepancy in its current trading price. Given that it trades as an ADR in nyse, I was shorting it as a simple vanilla put may not yield much? Any other way to go about shorting this beast with maximum damage. CAX perhaps? I am talking about a position with least maximum one way gain and minimum protection on calls. Any exotic takers? Much appreciated folks. Cheers

Fact they were offering mostly their hedge fund clients chance to replicated hypothetical gains by betting against European stock. Something tells me they are on the other side of the bet. More sadly was the fact they had to guage also retail investors into this etn showing probably a probable liquidity problem they are hiding. More ironic and funny is stop this whole TVIX if they were certain about it. I hope they got couple of good suckers on that 2x leverage while it lasted. Lets see how the sec investigation turns out on this....

Your take on its short play with maximum shorting and minimum upwardly hedging. I am looking for a good exotic play. Can cds come into play here. Do tell fellas
