When All The Drug Stock On Your Watch List Are Down

Can you pick just one for a rebound? Here is my list. Now let's look at Pfizer. When the dust settles might these ones look promising? Yet has the dust settled yet? Now 15 minutes later. Can you see with these "in-the-money" 24.5 Calls the option makers have widened their bids and asks. They are getting defensive as this could be an inflection point.

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...
