taxman, Re: Implied volatility of options.
Just read Intel options are in the the forties. April 130 calls--I worked out about 49.
Microsoft is still at around 38.
Both of these going to split and both stocks are somewhat volatile.
I am just wondering when the volatility for MSFT options increases. My guess is about a week before split which will also be the start of the earnings run up. Would the stock not be more volatile post split anyways as we could see bigger percentage moves than we see now.
Just curios.
