Options: Sedated Bullishness in Potash

Stock quotes in this article: POT  

Potash shares have rallied more than 45% since reaching a 52-week low of $66.31 on March 6. Three weeks ago, the stock rallied up to $117.88 a share. After the big pullback we have seen in the shares in the last three weeks, it's interesting that this investor could be betting that Potash stock might rally higher in the next couple weeks.
