The week's question
In March 2025, in the thread "Re: OT, out", Umm asked the members: "Do you think it is because America is made up of magical soil that makes businesses based in America magically profitable?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

" Why is this important?

You enjoy the weekend too."

Option activity is always important to watch.

IF you and a few money managing pals had orders to buy 2-3 million brkb next week would you or your pals be more inclined to buy short dated calls?

IF you had orders to sell 2-3 brkb common next week would you be more likely to buy short dated puts?

I'm curious, do you believe there are players big enough that they would front run their common orders by trading options first?

Would you be willing to, compensate, anyone in the brokers office who handles brks trades, to know a few days in advance which trades were about to be reported as, Buffett trades?

BTW, do you see options info, outstanding interest, markets, aka bid and ask, etc.

I took a photo of what I'm referring too but I can't share a photo, I don't know how even IF you can, would you like me to send it to you privately via this platform, if I can?

hc, tech wiz, secretary extraordinaire!
