It takes a big buying and news release to squeeze those shorts and pop up the price of CPQ. The announcement of the spin off of AV will be a good one !!! Unless CPQ's
managers would like to keep AV in their own pockets.

Merlo,
Closing out July 32.5 puts I sold for $4.5 by buying same for $1.5 today. Retaining July 30 puts I bought as insurance because I think price will drop below 30 late next week for x day. Agree too many calls setting at 27.5, 30, and 32.5. Puts are nowhere on volume. Expect shorts to be exercising calls to cover their positions. This will force price down. Just a theory. See ya tonight.
