Blue Horseshoe (hates) Brocade?
Brocade Communications Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ: BRCD) is getting its feelings hurt in after-hours trading after H-P (NYSE: HPQ) decided to spend $2.7 billion to buy 3Com (NASDAQ: COMS). Many have been under the assumption that Brocade Communications would be bought by H-P. The good news is that someone else may now need to look at Brocade. But the bad news is that Brocade is being slapped around. The stock is down 7% at $8.60 in after-hours trading. As of 5:02 BRCD has also traded 2.8 million shares in the after-hours session alone.

Stock/Option Volume Alert in Toll Brothers (TOL)
Who said home builders won’t do well as an investment? Toll Brothers Inc. (NYSE: TOL) is soaring on exponential trading volume today. We have seen almost 5X volume in the stock as at 2:10 PM EST there have been 17.2 million shares versus less than 4 million on average. The gain is to $21.10 and teh 52-week range is $13.55 to $24.30. But here is the call options and put options trading for the NOV-2009 expiration:
CALL$   Volume   OpInt
$18.00Â Â Â 1,421Â Â Â 6,094
$19.00Â Â Â 2,849Â Â Â 7,896
$20.00Â Â Â 1,387Â Â Â 10,712
$21.00Â Â Â 3,210Â Â Â 12,640
$22.00Â Â Â 2,541Â Â Â 1,127
PUT$   Volume   OpInt
$20.00Â Â Â 3,781Â Â Â 5,840
$21.00Â Â Â 1,329Â Â Â 397
This is on heels of a Wells Fargo upgrade AND on its guidance that new contracts are up 42% and fourth quarter revenue will beat analyst estimates at $486.6 million. To put this in perspective from a 2008, this is way above the $386+ million estimate from Thomson Reuters. But it is also far south of a year ago’s $691 million in revenues for the same quarter.

Options Alert in Terra-Agrium-CF Merger Saga (TRA, CF, AGU)
Terra Industries Inc. (NYSE: TRA) is seeing a lot of options action today with 17,164 calls trading as of 2:00 PM EST, and 45% offer side buying with shares at $35.65. Interestingly enough, a trader bought 5,000 November $40 calls at 35 cents on a 25-40 spread, a bullish bias. Another large buyer of December $39 calls came in around 1:20pm for 5,000 calls at the offer. Implied volatility is gaining 7% today to 60% as holders are urged to reject CF Industries’ (NYSE: CF) latest takeover offer. The current offer would give a value around $40 for Terra shares. This is occurring as CF is busy rejecting Agrium’s (NYSE: AGU) raised takeover offer. It appears the with this trading today we may get some clarity soon on the M&A saga, a possibly a bid Terra can not resist.

EA Rises, But Sloppy Sloppy Numbers (ERTS)
Electronic Arts Inc. (NASDAQ: ERTS) is rising after the close despite some mixed reports. The video game giant posted non-GAAP earnings at $0.06 EPS on $1.15 billion in revenues versus Thomson Reuters consensus estimates of $0.07 EPS and $1.13 billion in revenues. More importantly, EA reported more cost reductions and will close several facilities and make job cuts of 1,500 by March 31, 2010. While it will have $130 to $150 million in restructuring costs, this will give it $100 million in expected annual savings. The new guidance for 2010 is $0.70 to $1.00 EPS and $4.20 to $4.40 billion in revenues. Thomson Reuters has estimates at $0.89 EPS on $4.27 billion in revenues. If were not for the cost cuts, this would be ugly as sin.
EA shares are up 2% at $19.95 after closing up 2.8% at $19.53 in regular trading. While there were over 12 million shares in the regular trading session, we have seen 950,000 shares trade in the after-hours session since the $PM closing bell.

MBIA Options Alert! (MBI, ABK)
MBIA Inc.

Leveling Teton (TEC)
Teton Energy Corporation (NASDAQ: TEC) is getting killed today on trading volume that goes above and beyond ‘exponential trading volume’ when you look at it. Yet it is pretty sad when a whopping $600,000.00 worth of volume at the current price constitutes a volume spike. Teton’s self description is that the firm engages in the development, production, and marketing of natural gas and oil properties, but apparently it was not good at any of it. Teton filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection and will effectively sell itself. Shares are down 78% at $0.0666 right now. We have also seen over 9 million shares trade hands as of 11:00 AM EST.
While the company discusses that Rise Energy Partners II, LLC is acquiring the company, here is all you need to know as a common holder: Teton would like to inform investors that it believes it is likely that there will be no value for its common stockholders in the bankruptcy process. If you have ever been on a jet that had an engine blow out, this is one of those situations for Teton. The difference is that this is a crash and burn.
