European-style options are cheaper, because the right-to-exercise (as in American-style) is not given. OTH their intrinsic value is very much calculated the usual ("Nobel-prize-winning") way, it's just different math. IOW the word "cheaper" sucks in this context, because apples are no pears. In my 5 years of OS trades I never exercised, so American vs European is more of an interest to the issuer than to his clients. And re T-bill play - market makers for these instruments read newspapers and Bloomberg as well, so the prices should exhibit a nice bump by now. dj
