taxman, I have just about finished with my July calls. Sold a lot while the stock traded over 94. This is not due to a belief that the stock will stall but more to do with profit taking. No more stress for me (30% in MSFt july options was just too much to take, even for me). I have decided to still stick with a lot of leaps options and a few July 95s in case MSFt keeps going. I think we may head for 100 but am no longer greedy for more.
My MSFT shareholding and leaps should be enough concentation(still around 50% for me but with a large cash and moneymarket position).

I have just liquidated large options positions--getting ready for some day trading, a somewhat safer activity for people like me.

I am away from constant monitoring of the market and CNBC for a week or so. I hate getting only snapshots in such an important week.
However, i have gotten lucky with great fill prices today.

BTW--no puts for me---cash is better.
