One can only hope I guess.   But I doubt it.   Much in the same manner as the calls from Sept - Oct 2017 that one has to have patience and its a 2 - 3 years time horizon with CTM.   

Nothing has really change with the more recent calls of the same time frame - so its a NO from me for the OB's.   And while I hope I am wrong - I see them expiring worthless if they don't get a move a long soon.    The odds are against most companies options becoming ' in the money ' - not just once but again only 1 year later .......and in this current economic backdrop with all the uncertainties of world growth.   I wouldn't think so. 

No , I think this will be pushed out like you have said many times  before for  yet  ' another year ' .   All the more reasons to Buy more heads.   I would much rather hang onto my Shares and accumulate more ahead of perhaps some CR weakness so as to participate in some longer dated oppies which will no doubt come free with my rights........
