Bob, You make a point worth exploring in some depth. Russian Bear, Bernie and/or Celeryroot may know or can get the open interest on the puts and calls which expired today to see what the economic consequences were to the 15.25 close. I don't know where to get that. I did look at the 5 minute Big Chart and note there was very strong volume in the last 10 minutes, but the price level had started steadily upwards at about 2PM and was over $15 before the big volume kicked in. I don't know how much of the volume at the end was option related--maybe all of it.

Bernie, what is your view here?
