>> What's IMO?<<

Acronym that posters use, to eliminate typing....

IMO stands for In My Opinion. It's a general disclaimer
on something one is saying, so people don't get the
opinion that you're Moses with the 10 Comandments and
know everything.

This thread is used for collecting factual material,
which we try to verify if possible. And it's used
for stating opinions. It's always good to hear
other people's opinions, in case you're putting the
blinders on to something - as long as the person
stating an opinion has some reasoning behind it...

Somewhere in SI, there is a list of Acronyms...sonner
or later you'll come across it. I forget where it
is...

Here we go again ! June 30 calls for coms are again very active - 1200 contracts traded to day at 1 1/4

But last month the May 35 calls were very active but coms tanked.

I think people buy coms calls as insurance for their puts ? Or there are just too many blind speculators who don't really know what they are doing ?

For some other smaller stocks I tracked, usually high calls vol usually means insiders are buying - but not coms ?
