David: Leaps of KO, GE etc

I followed a similar approach. I bought y2k leaps of GE, G, KO, IBM and PG when the stocks were beaten down GE at 61 etc with a view to exercising them in y2k. I sold them prematurely with good profits. I should have held them. It is a poor judgment to have sold them and pay cap gain taxes. I feel it is a good strategy to buy slightly "out of the money" leaps of great company stocks when they are beaten down due to economic conditions. However I lost out on 98 leaps of COMS which I bought when the stock was 85. The stock went down and never recovered. Now they expire worthless.
