XO, I think the two key reasons OPMR does not have option is its 1) small float; 2) rel. small trading volume. OPMR also does not have more than 3-4 brokerage coverage at any single time. Therefore, the option MM's will probably have a very limited playing field with OPMR until its stock trading volume grows substantially and the number of holders (in particular big clients) increases. We small investors may want to have option but unless we can buy and sell it among ourselves I think we still need to rely on the option MM's to first have interest. Jim, thanks for telling about Auric and his better-than-expected ability to move stocks. I read some of the garbage he posted on OPMR thread and all I can say is he knows next to nothing about OPMR business. Once the shorters find it hard to push OPMR below $30, they will leave because the worst enemy of the shorters are dead money.
