I don't usually run the numbers except for Wednesday and Friday evening, but making an LU Max-Pain Point&#153 analysis this morning seemed appropriate. Based on yesterday's final CBOE open interest figures, the Max-Pain Point&#153 for LU is flat from $50 to $52.5. If you assume $50 to produce the maximum profit for the option writers, then a stock price of $60 produces $68M of pain ie less than maximum profit, for the MM's and $65 produces $134M in pain. This chart isn't posted but I will update all the charts this evening. Ben A. ez-pnf.com
