Akamai Technologies Inc (AKAM) $37.33 +2.21%

| February 24, 2012 | 0 Comments More

Akamai adds 74 cents to $37.26 and an Aug 35 – 40 call spread is apparently sold on the stock at $2.42, 3604X. The spread likely rolls a position opened on Friday the 13th last month, when 3604 Aug 35 calls traded on the $3.55 bid. Shares are up 15.2 percent since that time and the 35s are being bought back for $5.30. A new position opened in the out-of-the-money Aug 40 calls at $2.88 — perhaps an adjustment to an overwrite strategy on the Cambridge, MA Internet company.
