Scumbria,

<Could it have anything to do with minimizing losses on January options? ;^(>

I have no idea! I was expecting a range of 45-50. Tells you how much I know.

With 12M+ in volume, we are at 40! I wouldn't have believed that yesterday evening. (Apple up 10%, IBM up even after some serious financial engineering, Lattice up, pretty much every company that posted positive surprises are up.)

Yeah, and the securities markets are supposed to be perfect according to academics!

Chuck

I think you're right on the mark. See ez-pnf.com - Max-Pain point for AMD is $27.50, which will tend to draw the price down short-term. Intel's situation is similar. Could be bad today and tomorrow, and then pick back up on Monday after the January options expire.
