Coach (COH) loses $2.13 to $51.87 and options volume is running 2X the daily average, being led by a bearish three-way. The strategist sold 1200 Nov 57.5 calls to buy the Nov 50 – 43 put spread, 1200X. 30 cents was collected on the package and is possibly a bet that shares of the luxury goods company will continue fo feel the weight of a slowing global economy. COH rallied in the early days of July and hit a 52-week high of more than $69 on the 7/7. The gains didn’t last, however, and the stock is set to finish the quarter down 18.7 percent.

The top trade is a 9000-block of Oct 18 puts at $1.40 on ISE and was sold-to-open by a customer, according to ISEE data. 10,485 now traded, probably on the view that the stock will hold above $18 (~14.5%) through the October expiration (21 days).

Two noteworthy prints in BofA (BAC) Friday morning – both are bullish plays on the battered bank.

The top options trade on the bank today is a 19,000-block of Jan13 7.5 calls, bought at $1.52 per contract. 20,122 now traded against 126,345 in open interest. Separately, a Nov 4 – 7.5 risk-reversal trades at 12 cents, 9000X on ISE. Looks like a bullish r/r was initiated and ISEE data indicate an opening trade.

RIM loses $1.05 to $20.85 and one strategist sells 19,340 Jan 22.5 puts on the Blackberry-maker at $4.05 to buy 25,292 Jan 20 puts at $2.77. The move likely rolls some of a position opened a couple of weeks ago, when a Jan 15 – 22.5 put spread was bought on RIM at $2.30, 38690X (see 9/16 color). Looks like some of the spread was closed out one week ago (see 9/22 color). Now the Jan 22.5s, which were bought at $2.85 on 9/16, are being sold-to-close today to $4.05. The strategist is also bracing for further downside and opening in the Jan 20s. RIM saw a pop Tuesday on unsubstantiated chatter Icahn was taking a stake in the company (see 9/27 color). It is down over the past two days, however, and weighed down yesterday by news Amazon.com is selling a new Kindle Fire tablet for $199. RIMM is poised to set a new 52-week closing low Thursday. The previous is $21.26 set on 9/22.
