Actually, FWIW, looks like whoever cashed out the two 5K sets of APR puts may have turned around and bought 5K may 55 puts. Someone seems pretty confident this stock is going down.
Comments?


They can see the future? They are morons? They want to hedge? (Or some combination of the three ...)

Well, if PigBoy, or PigMan, or PigWhatever was still here he could probably help you. A little while back when AMAT was @62 or so he said that according to his charts AMAT was a "perfect" short.
I can only assume, however, that with earning announcement coming up for AMAT in May, perhaps someone is betting they will not be very good. Where is that PigGuy, anyway?<gg> Jeff
