In the options segment, Najarian said options activity has been extremely heavy in Human Genome Science (HGSI) which he said is "back from the dead" and up 846% year to date -- thanks to the prospects of its lupus drug, Benlysta. A large volume of the Nov 22 calls and Nov 30 calls suggests to Najarian this stock could soon make a significant move higher.

I’d play Google (GOOG) with options, counsels Brian Stutland, otherwise at these levels it becomes a terribly capital intensive trade. Personally I’d sell some put spreads around $550.
