I think MS/DW was short a bunch of at-the-money
put options that would expire in-the-money on'
a lower opening (cash settlement option on morning
opening rotation for the components of the underlying
index). A lower opening would have cost them "huge"
money so they did a nice arbitrage..trade $1,000,000.00
in fines for manipulation of 10 stocks in the index
versus a potential liability on a $300 million program
trade of at least 10X the fine!!!!

BTW..loaded up some more LGOV this AM...
