Thanks.

Is there any way to trigger early exercise? Say you actually want the call buyers to exercise early, can it be done? My assumption is that this is impossible, but that's just an assumption. Thanks.

extenuating circumstances (i.e., dividends) may entice a call holder to exercise. i do not believe MSFT pays divs so no problem there.]<<
