Chuck,

I'm an amatuer, but to me, I believe this means the options players believe AMD won't go below $65 before earnings.

I'm sure other experts can offer more insight.

PS- According to put experts like "elmer", 90 some percent of put options expire worthless.

re:<I just checked and I see 6805 Apr 65 put contracts traded today.> IMO, any sign of such large scale pessimism is very good news.

Today I bought more 55's and sold 70's against them for a debit of 10 1/8. That was almost a nobrainer. After online commissions, profitable as long as AMD stays above 65 3/8, with a likely 45% profit in 2 1/2 weeks.
