RLM you will see this kind of jacking of the premium right before earnings... they did they same thing with excite for instance... puts that I bought...stock price up 2 points my put was worth 3/4 more...i got it before they jacked the IV it can be frustrating because you can buy an option right before the earnings..and the price can go your way..but you wont see the movement that you should in the option because of what they did to the IV on it. or in otherwords...the price could stay exactly the same on the stock..but the day after earnings..they strip your premium....
