Hi Dave,

>>There are over 100,000 calls open for prices of 65 and above and a like number of open puts for prices of 62.5 and below. This equals 10,000,000 shares of stock on each side. The pressure is HUGE to keep the stock between those two levels to have all those options expire
worthless>>

Would you mind explaining to me a bit more on this. I'm not familiar
with the dynamics of the relationships between options and the stock itself. Wouldn't the option holders cover all their positions before the expiry date without buying/selling the stock itself? Thanks.

D.
