    I'd be buying at 23 and under and hold it to 33.

    Its got a healthy dividend. Rock solid balance sheet for sure.
    I wouldn't short it. Just soliciting opinions.
    A while back a reputable poster here with a good record put a $15 target on it.

    Nah...I wouldn't short. Historically, it looks like this stock likes hanging out at the $23ish range, and is now sandwiched between the 50&200 MA's which also happen to be a mature and solid S/R area. P/C Ratio is extremely bullish, lots of heavy betting in the $23-25 strikes out to July. Short interest is low, and ADX is at a high (institutions coming back in after they lightened their load by 22% over last quarter). If you get long, might be some meat left on the bone up to $24ish.

  7. The Call option is relatively expensive than the put option suggesting that market is expecting the price to rise above the strike price of $23. By the way, Van do you trade call and put options at IB?

    Hi VC...
    Hey I just looked, they're pretty much balanced. It closed at $22.95 The $23 Calls are .40/.60 on the bid/ask and the puts are .45/.60 .... thats about right.

    I don't use IB. Zzzz1 uses them so I figure they must be f'd up. ;)
