I, too, play QCOM with options. I like the leverage. I like controlling the volatility this way. I have the Sept 170s long and when the stock rallied into the 180s, I sold the 195s short. So, today's action doesn't really bother me too much. I forgot about the analyst meeting coming up next week. This will give management an opportunity to explain what the analysts said today. Either that analyst knew something (and the Q clued him on it), or he was speculating and nows no more than any of us. A 12% haircut though was uncalled for--in any event. I will add to my positions will Jan 2000 calls on any weakness tomorrow morn. 152 is as far down as I see this baby going.
