I really believe in the Zalesky options theory, Mike. Those big guys can legally move the stock price to protect their positions. They don't want their shares called away but they will cordially accept any that you might have bet on! It might be a good sign for cpq that so many big boys are sitting on their shares like there was no tomorrow. It's like options plays on coke. They very rarely unwind in favor of the small players. Nobody wants to lose their shares but they would certainly like yours! Results: a lot of open interest at expiry or a lot of small players sans coke!
