I think vol will spike briefly and will then come down. One scenario is 50 pt ct, with the typical spike and drop in vol. Who knows how the market will react by the end of the day. I wish I was that good.

it's amazing seeing the guys on the floor punish the premium buyers before the announcement. once it comes out, premium drops fast, but it should be made up with the move.
