Pyriel Real Estate Corner

Folks,
Wondering if anyone can help with this - I'm seeking a reputable source, on a news-story, that I'm almost sure I heard on Bloomberg TV yesterday at about ~5:00 pm. Sorry, but I only caught this on the TV, as I was doing other work.

What I heard was that traders yesterday, started buying extraordinary numbers of puts - I think related to Real Estate/Housing. Anyone hear this also?
I listened carefully afterwards, but did not hear any more on this, or know where to look to confirm this.

I also think I heard that this could affect, in particular, the days surrounding the May OPEX - and that there is an expectation that Housing could drop another 20% by end of May!

Obviously, if I heard this wrong, I do not want to spread/create a rumor. But if correct, it could be significant.
Hoping anyone can assist on finding truth, via options put/call data on this, any way to to confirm/or to deny!
Apologise, but last thing I'd want to do is to pass/spread untrue rumor!

I found one article on Real Estate, that might be some small confirmation...

Still seeking someone with real option-trading experience to confirm/deny the options "news" re: chart showing if there was "extrordinary "put" buying on Friday! Could it just have been a "big-boys" news-ploy?
