I think the reason people are fixated on the $2000 checks is because that's immediate in a way the other stuff in the bill isn't.
That's not nothing! But it's not a RIGHT NOW check for $2000.
- We desperately need a minimum wage increase.
- But a minimum wage increase is not a substitute for *covid relief* when so many of us lost our jobs or had our hours reduced because of the deadly pandemic.
My assumption is that Biden will cave on most of the Bill as soon as some R asks nicely in the name of "Unity". It's a lot harder to take back checks once they're mailed so I'm focused on "2000 not 1400" because that's something that they can do RIGHT NOW.

Ok here is the explanation. Grab a cup of coffee and read on. If you have not read/noticed this, you will see intraday options movement in a new light.
Say we have two options, one 50 delta ATM options and another 30 delta OTM option. Normally for a 100 point move, the ATM option will move 50 points and the OTM option will move 30 points. But in a high volatile environment, the OTM option will also move nearly 50 points
To understand why this happens, first understand why an ATM option is 50 delta. An ATM option has the probability of 50% of expiring as ITM. The price just has to close a rupee above the strike for the CE to be ITM and vice versa for PEs
Now think of a highly volatile day like today. If someone is asked where the BNF will close for the day or expiry, no one can answer. BNF can close freakin anywhere, That makes every option of an equal probability of being ITM. So all options have a 50% probability of being ITM
Hence, when a huge volatile move starts, all OTM options behave like ATM options. This phenomenon was first observed in the Black Monday crash of 1987 at Wall Street, which also gave rise to the volatility skew/smirk
In a high IV environment or when the market is very volatile

" OTM options will behave like ATM options", one will get almost the same delta movement
