CTSH: Interesting Options Action in Cognizant	I have followed IT outsourcing firm Cognizant (CTSH) for several years, and have expressed concern over growth sustainability for the last year or so. So far that concern appears premature, as the stock is up 11.2% compared to a 4.9% decline in the S&P since I wrote about the stock for RealMoney. Today, the StockPickr screen for stocks with unusual option volume is showing unusual volume in the January 2009 calls with a $45 strike price - approximately 20% above the current level.

Why HP’s EDS Deal Makes The Street Nervous	Clearly, the Street is not crazy about Hewlett-Packard’s (HPQ) plan to acquired Electronic Data Systems (EDS). In two days, the Street has knocked about 10% off HP’s stock price, chopping its market cap by about $12.5 billion, almost equal to the $13.9 billion deal price. The obvious question is, why?

CTSH: Still Wary About Cognizant After Strong Earnings Report	This article is a reprint of my February 11, 2008 RealMoney column After Cognizant Technology Systems (CTSH) declined sharply upon reporting its third quarter results, I said the stock was looking like a high-growth value trap. Since that article, the stock has declined 5.3%, though Friday’s 15% rally (spurred by the company’s fourth quarter results) puts it ahead of the 10.1% loss in the S&P 500 over that period. Jay Somaney outlined a solid case for why he believes Cognizant’s report...	February 18, 2008
