Yitz, majority of option writers are MMs and institutions. It's to their best interest to see the options expire worthless or with minimum value, or in their favor considering the ratio of call and put contracts. Keep in mind that historically the option writers win 80% of the time. In some rare cases, companies write options for their underlying stocks. MSFT does it consistently. In fact, a large percentage of MSFT's earnings derives from put contracts.

Regards,

Tom
