Option premiums

[admin]

Are returning, this is a very promising sign, IMHO

Directly correlating to PR efforts.
Thank you very much.

Tree those new Bongo drums seem to work well. I have thus retired the smoke signals..

These premiums are blowing up further, with remarkable speed I have to say. This really is very encouraging.

admin, I just took a look a the premiums and while they are going up I don't see a huge increase. Maybe I am overlooking something. What options are you referencing? I will say that the spreads are widening on the contracts which tells me the MM aren't wanting to be caught with their pants down

As opposed to a dryhole blowback or an LNG project cost blowout an options price blowup is a much better thing I'd say.

Comedy central. I am turning off CNBC.. More entertainment value here. Cramer only rants once in while these days

Cramer last month gave ioc a sell, then cramer's the street.com also gave it a sell. and along comes a short raid on ioc. In the past he has avoided giving any call on ioc, as I recall. he's super tight with goldman, likelly ioc's biggest MM. I suspect the shorts got to cramer to give them a hand. i've strongly suspected this of him with other stocks in the past. My bet, there's a connection and he had knowledge a bear raid was coming. jimo

Hey,
Assuming Gulf LNG comes in under-budget will that be known as a 'Cost Blow In'??

[Palm]

Getting a little pumpish there Tree. Has anyone ever brought an LNG project in on time and under budget? Anyone? I mean a real LNG project.
