Mike,

I have traded options only a little. I feel like I need to reread McMillan and/or Natenberg, etc. Do you have a suggestion there? With this grossly overvalued market, and the specter of even undervalued stocks being hurt in a market downturn, I feel pressure to head towards options. Does that make any sense? Should options make up a bigger part of one's thinking in certain market conditions?

Sorry I have so many questions, but one more. Is it not a strange dichotomy that there is widening spreads in the bond market --> flight to quality...And yet stocks (especially nasdaq and small caps) are soaring here --> flight to speculative investments. Like the market is saying "I can't stand the risk of an AT&T bond, so give me MU"
