Zeev...would you mind expanding on your statement re "lucky there are no options..." Are you suggesting that any stock that has options is subject to greater manipulation than those stocks that do not? Specifically, I watched very closely a stock this past week, Enzo Biochem (ENZ/amex) and have never observed such a blatant example of option impact on an expiration Friday. I'm long the common and was more than a little dismayed by what I saw Thursday and Friday. Anyway, if I'm correct in what your thinking may be, it happens to be a long term belief of mine irrespective of the propaganda the CBOE, et.al, put out. I was just curious as to your thoughts on the subject. Thanks, Gator II
