Obviously, there is much more of the put option’s range of exposure
|

bounded by the BSM cone in the second, high-volatility scenario, and this
|

means that the price received for accepting the same downside risk will be
|

substantially higher when implied volatility is elevated.

The key to setting up a successful allocation of short puts is to find
|
||||
companies that have relatively low downside valuation risk but that also
|
||||
have a significant amount of perceived price risk (as seen by the market)—
|
||||
even if this risk is only temporary in nature. Quarterly earnings seasons are
|
||||
nearly custom made for this purpose. Sell-side analysts (and the market
|
||||
in general) mainly use multiples of reported earnings to generate a target
|
||||
price for a stock. As such, a small shortfall in reported earnings as a result
|
||||
of a transitory and/or nonmaterial accounting technicality can cause sell-
|
||||
side analysts and other market participants to bring down their short-term
|
||||
target price estimates sharply and can cause stock prices to drop sharply
|
||||
as well.

These times, when a high-quality company drops sharply as a re-
