Farouk, your comments have been most insightful.

Volatility is the key to straddling. Wouldn't a large short interst position be a prerequisite to utilizing this strategy?
Iomega certainly fits that description but do the two always go hand in hand?

For example, last month, Cisco's short interest position was huge. But it's not exactly "volatile".

Please keep me informed of your strategies, thanks.
