Amusing if your not holding it :-)
XRX warned again ! and is down after hours..
it's my one lemon ..and one more reason I like
flipping indexes more better than picking stocks.

Talk about amusing, by some quirk in timing
I bought FIBR some time back..at about mid 40
well the Nov 55 calls were bringing a high premo
at the time so I sold covered calls..
She went all the way to 75..and I was saying damm
but the 55 puts got cheap and I said what the hell
I may as well buy them ( just in case )
She is now 26
As it turned out I bought the calls back cheap
dump the stock..then sold the puts and damm near
made a double anyway..
But it was more luck than skill..I had
no idea she would drop back into the 20s .
