OT ... GVTucker, re "Dividends almost always do not reduce the strike price of a listed option."

Agreed, but when the dividend exceeds 10% of the total market value, the options are almost always adjusted.

re "Extraordinary dividends like the MSFT dividend are settled on a case by base basis."

For this case, the OCC has already decided to reduce the strike of all options by $3. theocc.com
