Hi Charles,
How is it going? Be sure to post when you think the selling has gone long enough and you were going to buy some more SUNW. That has usually been a pretty good indicator of a short term bottom. BTW I don't see how seling covered calls and buying puts can cause a broad based sell-off. One of the main reasons for my concern about market levels has been the extremely bearish signs that the put call ratio (for every 3 to 4 calls there is only 1 put being bought) is indicating for quite some time. If a lot of puts were being bought and a lot of covered calls written by retail investors that would be a bullish sign (I had some cov calls expire fri, and I rolled forward into Feb 85s and 90s - today's drop was too tempting and I actully bought back the 85s at the end of the day). IMO what will keep SUN from sliding less than other in its sector is the promise of 25% + rev growth, and potentially 35-40% earnings growth over the next couple of years.

Regards

Alok
