NEW YORK (Reuters) – Some Wall Street traders are betting against another massive rally in AMC Entertainment Holdings Inc and other “meme” stocks this week through a type of wager in the options market that would limit their losses should retail investors behind the run-up prove them wrong.

The so-called “bear put spread,” a common bearish options strategy, also limits profits.

Its increased use now, which has not been previously reported, shows how Wall Street is looking for ways to profit off the unprecedented rise of retail trading but treading carefully after some high-profile funds got buffeted earlier this year.
