"implied volatility on the MSFT April calls just dropped so much"

i believe that earnings will not be announced until april 22, 1999, which is after the april option expiration date of april 16, 1999.

to have the earnings announcement affect the stock, you would need to buy may options which have an implied volatility of about 42.
