Anyone, I have a question about blocks of 100,000 Sep40QQQQCalls being bought at about 10 cents each yesterday and the day before.

That does not seem like a lot of money for an institution (assuming it is an institution) to put up to buy options. Yet it seems to influence players into buying at these levels and apparently a bunch of them judging by AAII sentiment. It crosses my mind that this could be a cheap way to get more people interested in buying stocks at inflated levels at a cost of only $10,000 per 100,000 options. Does this make any sense? Am I thinking like a criminal yet?
