Jenna,

Two of your previous earnings plays are queued up for this week: CCL reports on Friday and KBH reports on Wednesday. Both have been hit pretty hard and should be poised for a rebound. I have no position now but am thinking about buying some calls on Monday; however, I am apprehensive about timing my entry. Calls will be very pricey IMO first thing Monday morning if the market is screaming upward. Any words of wisdom? From your past experience, are these two 'gappers' or more steady climbers? Catching a run-up prior to earnings has worked beautifully in the past, but with all the market volatility recently it has been too risky to hold for multiple days, even with good companies.

In the case of CCL, it was upgraded by DLJ on Friday -- a good sign as earnings approach. It leads me to believe that the recent on-board fire will not have a material impact on CCL's steady growth.

Any comments would be appreciated.
