Sorry about that. They, theStreet.com, used to identify whether an article was 'premium' or not in the URL of the article. This one didn't have the magic 'premium' in it so I thought it was freely readable by all. The gist is that the timing of the options expiration, the Mac-whatever that is going on, and the quarterly earnings report are all going to exert tremendous force on the stock price. The options MMs appear to be caught in a squeeze of their own making (the divergence of the Max-Pain Point&#153 and the stock price shows this directly) that occurred because they didn't expect the momentum that is now happening. (The momentum has swamped out the natural attractor property of the Max-Pain Point&#153.) So the potential is that there is going to be a massive squeeze on the options MM's who will need to buy 'mass quantities' of stock. That is my read of what the article said. Ben A. ez-pnf.com
