isnt that crazy, every day I turn on cnbc there is another buyout, not only that but I tune into Bloomberg late at night and there are another a ton of other mergers going through, its like never ending....The buyout craze is getting to heavy now, something is going to give in that area as well.
I don't pay much attention to how others are doing but a "friend" of mine wanted to prove something to me (that while he isn't a trader he can do better than me or just that trading is a waste of time? Not exactly sure what. ) and apparently he had placed $10K in DIA calls a few months ago. He is up over 1200%, no screen time, no effort nothing just placed one order. I didn't have a lot to say to him but given that my EEM puts are getting killed today it really gilded the lilly.
