Can anyone explain to me why CKFR options have almost no time premium priced into them? They are way, way below their Black-Scholes numbers. Is it becuase of pessimism over the recent price dive, lack of volume, or...?

Does anyone here trade CKFR options, or do you guys trade just plain ol' shares?

I recently sold off most of my stocks to put a down payment on a house, and have been dabbling in options with what little money I have left in my e*trade acct. And I couldn't resist CKFR at these levels. But I'm confused by the options pricing.

thanks in advance,
