Michael,

Yes ... Tim has answered about CTXS. It was a swan dive, not a split in Feb.

On the quality stocks that you wish to accumulate ... my sense is to buy cheap protective puts before taking positions. The puts may offer more protection and alternatives in various markets than going long shares and covering them. One can spread near-month puts against the long puts if the stock is stable and stalling; one can leg into shorting higher-strike puts with protection from the cheap puts if the stock is in a trading range and sentiment is neutral; one can leg into going long leaps if the stock looks to have based while the market is still vulnerable. Oh, I bought AMAT puts on strength last week ... ready to implement these strategies as appropriate.
