LOCK-UP EXPIRATIONS

In mid-November, mid-December and mid-January a total of nearly 90 million shares will be released for trade. In February an additional 176.8 million shares become eligible.

"Until the lock-up comes off in mid-November, which would allow Google employees and other early investors to sell stock and cash in on the (shares') meteoric rise, you could continue to see a short squeeze in the stock," said Jeff Shaw, head options trader at Interactive Brokers Group unit Timber Hill.
