Scott,

IMHO holding through earnings has an unfavorable risk/reward scenario.
I assume you're talking about Nov. calls. Any cautionary statements in the 10K may be focused on. Implied volatility tends to decrease sharply after earnings. Dell's last report serves as a good example. Company beats concensus, stock up 5-7 points a few days later, calls don't move at all.

I think CSCO and the networkers are a good bet right now. All this is just opinion.

Good trading.
