The whole technology segment is going crazy. I am reminded of watching Japanese tourists at the Gucci store in Hawaii throwing money at the clerk!

I am a student of PSR's also and would not "buy" UNPH or TLAB but since they are already in my portfolio I am writing covered calls for networking stocks that have made big runs lately. I think that makes more sense than selling these companies short. For example, the UNPH Sep 65 calls are getting $7.5 per share! Not a bad return for two months. If they call the stock, I go out at an average price of $72.50. If the stock drops I am cushioned for over 10% drop.

I would wait till the correction actually starts before shorting tech stocks. The trend is still up!! (Except for DDIM Craig!)
