Bullish Move in Cardinal Health: Options

Stock quotes in this article: CAH , CFN  

Bullish rolls like these do not mean that investors should run right out and buy CAH shares. However, it is interesting to note that one investor is rolling out a bullish play, and is betting on the earnings power of CAH alone rather than holding the options that have both CFN and CAH exposure. The investor needs CAH to perform on its own earnings power.
