Because that is how MM make money. Offering liquidity with two-sided markets, selling what we deem high in value and buying what we deem low in value and hedge.
UPDATE
I will hold till after earnings.
- AAPL at $208.00
- I expect a 8%+ climb after earnings.
- $208 + 8% = 224
- $224 - $215 (call strike) = $9
I will hold till after earnings.
