Ok after all the drama let's see what you've got on PUTS: 1. "The problem will surface when the stock goes down. How will Microsoft satisfy their put obligations? How will they buy all this stock?" Please give me a break..even the USA could face the same problem with the dollar..At any rate nothing illegal here.. 2. "When asked this, Maffi - their CFO - chuckled that they would just issue more stock to satisfy the delivery when Wall Street "puts" the stock to them. " No proof of anything wrong either.. 3. "If there is a direct connection between these trades and a financial relationship with Microsoft, then one could argue collusion. If there is collusion, then one must examine the pricing of these puts. My guess would be the pricing is at very favorable terms." 4."There may be 168 million put option warrants out there - a small number when stacked against their total shares outstanding- but does this include all the listed put option contracts they've been selling over the past 4+ years? " really.. ======================== If this is all you've got then I don;t think you have to worry: big brother, and the other monsters are probably not after you... VD
