ok, kis, lets say you are right, well, i must agree, for it can't be the mom and pop people buying a hundred shares (still a ton of f---ing money, natch) nor can it be mutual funds buying for long term (at least i don't believe so)... but does the elevator go up every month in the last week of option expiry, or not necessarily...has anyone tracked this ? are YOU gonna take advantage of this net mania sequel to buy poots... i was thinking of friday afternoon but i am tempted to get some ebay poots later today... they didn't get to auction the Elvis stuff...i hear icollector.com has it...i don't believe any serious auction would even be on ebay...who wants to deal with a site where underage practical jokers are putting their friends virginity on there ?

Holy crap! Is anyone watching the options chain on the i-nuts?!?! Someone is dumping HUGE positions in calls across the board. I wouldn't give this rally more than another hour before the bottom falls out. I'm seeing 100 contracts fly by like crazy on the sell.. Coincidentally they are the ones that just tripled this morning!! YOU HAVE GOT TO BE KIDDING ME!!! THEY COULDN'T POSSIBLY BE THIS OBVIOUS!!!! THIS IS THE BIGGEST PUMP AND DUMP I'VE EVER SEEN!
