Hi, folks,
Believe me or not, there will be a lot of buying activities for IOMG next week.
Why? 1. People buy it because of 90 percent of stock during the week before split and after split, the stock goes up. That's common sense.
2. IOMG Option writers will buy back their assigned stocks. I think (may not be accurate) that there will be 4,120,000 shares to be assigned. Look at the following chart for detail. The reasons that the IOMG big guys may buy back those assigned shares is because the option priemium is very high. One can make a great profit by selling calls to option players. Why IOMG set split date on May 20 not May 17? The reason could be that they want to have one trading day to cover those assigned stocks.
By the way, is anyone notice that there is one trading day between option expiration and split? Why, it is for those option writer to buy back their assigned stocks. Do you guys see how smart are those IOMG guys? First of all, announce the split on the first trading day after April option expired. Secondly, do the split on the second day of May option expired.
Just some thought. Thanks for you time.
