Hi Bob ..

I think that we may be seing the unwinding of a large arp play that has been in place for a while now ..

The arb play was long stocks and short the sp00 ..

This generated a very large OI for the September contract.

The idea, I believe, was to unload this arb well before now ..

Now the players are caughe between a rock and hard place.

Multiple choise:

A roll over the contracts into December .. however this represents an opportunity for other arb players ..

B cover. I think that we may be seeing this one. Prem stays up while stocks go down ..

FWIW .. IMHO
