Kevin, what do you think about the manipulation "theories" relating to options expiration? As in, when "institutions" sell calls at a certain stock price; for example, $150. And then if the stock is above $150 a little before expiration, they will dump their shares (or whatever) in order to bring the stock to ~$150 (or slightly below) so that they don't lose the stock they sold calls on. Obviously, if this is even possible, INTC would be extremely difficult to "manipulate." Just for clarity, I do not really believe in this sort of thing, although I do find the speculation interesting. I'm just asking, because the consensus on a lot of threads (USRX, for example) is that this is truly happening.... Sal Habash P.S. Yes, I do know that you shouldn't believe everything you read on the internet. But some of this stuff is intriguing.
