What do you mean?
If we were in the last week of option expiration the last 2 days makes sence, as it is, there must have been some news to make them do what they did. But it did look like a someone was covering a large short position. Also the option premium on the calls dropped drastically, The stock was UP 1/2 but the SEP 7 1/2 calls had lost 1/16 from yesterday.

You think this had anything to do with todays strength?
