Option Open Interest?
Anyone have any theories on the just out of the money
calls (e.g. May 15, May 17.5)?
I've noticed each month a rather large OI (+/-4000)
leading up to expiration...and each month the stock
approaches them, but they end up expiring worthless.
Before the April expiration I noticed the OI for May
was much smaller than I had seen recently, but now too
the OI for May is up to those levels!

So do folks think this is continued speculation each
month, hoping for a breakout?
Or a covered call strategy - which would have worked
exellently as the premiums are +10%...
