Thanks for the option discussion. I am trying to replace some of the income that the mild weather has inflected on my Canadian NG trusts and spread out to other sectors at the same time. I find the many of the stocks mentioned here make sense for the long haul and the extra cash from call premiums makes up for the lack of excitement.

I have often been amazed at the price of out-of-the-money call premiums on gold stocks and even our IMCL. I attribute that perhaps incorrectly to another option strategy seldom discussed and that is long calls short stock.

I have watched this strategy work well with controversial hi beta stocks even though it defies logic (mine anyway). Buying puts would seem smarter.
