July 2008 LHC End of the Universe Puts
by Johnny Debacle

People are concerned about an end of existence event that may be  
caused by the Large Hadron Collider and there is talk when the LHC is  
turned on in July 2008, that a super-collision here, a super- 
collision there and *bam*, no more Universe. This would doubtless be  
an event from which most investors have not adequately protected  
their portfolios. That is why Long or Short is now offering LHC End  
of the Universe Puts. It’s a simple put option wherein the buyer  
retains the write to sell the Universe at a strike price of  
“Existing”. Based on our Black-Holes model used to value all “end of  
the world” options, the July 2008 vintage options are currently  
priced at $20.

Recommendation: These options are literally the only way to protect  
your portfolio from the possibility that when the LHC is turned on  
mini-blackholes will form, come together and have a blackhole party  
that literally rips the (cheap) fabric of universe asunder.

Don’t let this
