US OPTIONS FOCUS/Speculation in Micron, Morris up
CHICAGO, June 16 (Reuter) - Speculation in Micron Technology Inc (MU) and Philip Morris Cos Inc (MO) increased on Monday for two distinctly different reasons, traders said.
Speculation in Micron was related to its quarterly earnings report, due after the close of trading, and in Philip Morris to a possible tobacco industry deal this week with several states attorneys general, traders said.
``It's all a play on what they say this afternoon,'' Rob Kovell of Kovell Trading LP said of Micron options activity on the Pacific Stock Exchange.
In late trading, Micron shares were up 1-1/4 at 42 on volume of more than 2.5 million shares.
Among the options, the June 42-1/2 call was most active, with total turnover of 3,570 contracts. The June 40 puts traded about 3,525 and the June 40 call about 2,855.
