*Shorts and other stuff * AMAT, NVLS, LRCX, LLTC, XLNX.... KDAVY... If I was to short I would wait for the third or fourth consecutive up day. Previously you posted the buying of some positions and writing a "in the money " covered call. I think this plays out better than buy some puts, because only one commission is involved. My example for today would be TER...Buy it at 41 1/2 and write the 40's or the 37 1/2's a month out. It might be a small gain, but better than a big loss. FWIW..Dept...I think the best play out there is ORCL. Buy it now and next Tuesday write the 15's or the 17 1/2's for July. What looks good to you today? Regards, Jerome
