Gambler& MB ,

I also have been wondering about CCE. I'm a little perplexed why a bunch of analysts upgraded it after it dropped from the 40's. I assume they think it's "cheap" now. But it still looks way over-valued to me. It looked ready to drop again last week and I had some of those cheap puts. But then it was announced that CCE was going to join the S&P 500 and its been going up ever since. It looks like a great opportunity to buy back my puts but I'm uncertain about the timing. Can anyone tell me how joining the S&P usually effects a stock? Am I right in assuming that much of the buying now is from index funds? Do those funds usually try to buy a new index member before it joins the index (after the close on Oct 7, I think)? Or does the buying persist for sometime after?
