yep...there was huge demand for those calls today. i also think the MM's may be scared of a moonshot bounce-back. noticed that on prior down days the most heavily traded QQQ calls didn't give up much premium either. but by now everybody knows this game, and today it didn't work for once. who knows though...we may be greeted by a gap up open.

to follow up this message...

a 1/4 point rate cut would not be the philosopher's stone that would turn around the failed dot.com business model. through the last couple years we have heard that the whole world was changing from bricks and mortar, that dot.com's were making sense in losing money for market share, that internet infrastructure suppliers like csco and lu could continue their astonishing growth on the backs of these market share grabbers, that pc suppliers like dell and component suppliers like the semis could likewise continue their growth as the world became digitized more and more.

o'reilly has one of the most popular prime time news programs these days and insists that 1/4 point would have staved off a recession which he now sees as imminent. no word anywhere of a mania that misallocated resources. no word anywhere of slowdowns being actually healthy and necessary to work off excesses. he gets very loud and intimidates his guests and has little actual economic knowledge. you would do a good job in bringing more sense to the debate.

something like this would help

very impressive show. ceo/chairpersons of xom/mrk/ebay/sun...nice format to be on. they gave you a good amount of time also. good job.

just one thing, i didn't understand the concept of liking stocks more when they were lower in price <g>

captain stubing's efforts at audience for this one exceeded the usual si crowd...much of antchick's family should have been watching...i harassed them enough to watch <g>
