A Scenario For Insider Trading.

I think something suspious happened today but I have no proof. It's what happened to Boeing Calls. First it's one day chart, on a day the D.J.I.A closed down. ,,, Can you see the stock spike at 1:18 p.m.? What was that all about? Why on a Friday afternoon? That is when there are Call options expiring in a few hours. That's when anyone privy to this infornation just prior to it being "hot-off-the-press" would be buying in. ... ..... ... One could say that this was an anticapated event with teams of employees at Boeing negotiating terms and conditions. They would be in the know. If you think about it the release of "purchasing news" like this should be limited to happening only when the North American market's are closed. In that way news like this would have more time to be disseminated. But what about air crashes, gold and diamond mines flooding out and workers going on strike? Market trading is what it is? It doesn't always seem fair.

They are the Roku "out-of-the-money" Call options that expire tomorrow. The volume in them is not all that crazy but if I owned the stock I would be tempted to sell the Calls against my position and hope they would expire worthless. Tomorrow is Friday August 2nd. ...... ....... Why pay so much? Why pay $4.05 for a Call with a striking price of "58" with one trading day to go in the contract? The stock would have to jump four dollars just to get your money back? Talk about stupid? Yet then again Netflix, a company also in a similiar space sometimes moves like ten dollars in one day. Here now is a look at what happened by showing tomorrow's five day chart. Down $2.19 on the day to $53.14 with the DJIA down over 600 points. Say goodbye to those Calls if you ever bought in. N...
