Re: <why buy CPQ now, when you can buy it at the same price a few months from now. Put the money in a CD or something, it will earn more!!> Stockman: I can't believe that recommendation. Anyone who feels CPQ will be neutral for the next few months should be selling covered calls @ $32.5 or $35. Rate of return on CD 4%. Rate of return for Mar 32.5 call a 15/16 is 3% for 8 weeks. And potential gain to $32.50. Anyone investing in CDs as alternative to CPQ should stay in CDs. IMO, once the full value of the DEC acquisition is realized, CPQ has potential for exceptional gains.
