Hi Tom; I was just using intc as an example, on a sort of academic
thinking out loud way of looking at the advantage , put writers
have over put buyers ( all things even it's a good one ).
By that I mean lets assume both sides are just as smart as each
other about calling up or down turns, and it works out
were the writer can call them as good as the buyer.
------------------------
The writer with a little foot work will have a big edge over the
buyer of puts.
I think I made clear that if I were to play it would be on
NB not intc. Even then I hate to take issue with some certain
stock as if I'm hyping, or knocking it. Still I'm sold on
the safety factor built into Larger cap stocks, this coming
from the strategic advantage, which is my focus.
There is no reason to think I can not do FA as good as
anyone else, but lets keep in mind half the info we get to
do FA on is not reliable, other wise the expert Anal-cysts
would not be in endless revising, devising , and surmising
and there would not be disappointments, or surprises.
The extra edge , lies in looking for a strategic advantage
the stock might have and understanding it separate and away
from FA or TA with that in one hand then do the other.
More to the point, I hoped that post was examining how to
see the strategic advantage of writing puts, as opposed
to buying them. Intc was just academic to the theme.
