Pete,

I just got a call from FIDO to advise that 12 of my March 45 naked puts had been exercised, giving me 1,200 more shares of ASND (at a price of 45) offset by about 12 points per share from the sale of the puts (making the effective price of the stock about 33/share).

What with ASND now on an uptrend, why would anyone exercise the puts now? I'm actually happy they did, but I'm at a loss to figure why.

Gary Korn

P.S. I sold these puts long ago, when ASND was trading at about 36 or 37.
