<Yhoo: 53.68 bid 53.69 ask
May04 50 calls bid 4.3 ask 4.4
May04 55 calls bid 1.3 ask 1.35

Sounds like Yhoo stock might even be closed. 1c wide seems unusual and even if real, once the option market maker starts pounding away on the bid the market makers [stock] run away. The markets [options] on the exchange often have to be hundreds on each side [tens of thousands of shares] for the big guys... if they make markets much better than those above they'll just get killed: 4.3 4.4 is a GREAT market.
