Bought AKAM March Calls ATT buyout chatter

Aren't they supposed to wait until 3:45PM on a Friday to come out with the "news" that is supposed to save the market for the week? Wonder what it will be today?

Any deal will likley be dillutive or hurt earnings, maybe good for the market as it gives some relief from the credit woes but could be a negative for the stock. Doesn't everyone and their mother know about this by now and aren't people just waiting to unload in to the news, probably why it is...
