Follow up on ATHM covered call. Sorry I didn't post when I did it. I post infrequently and forgot I'd exposed this one...

Wednesday I closed the AHQIH call, bought it back in for 1 3/8, while ATHM was weak. Today, Sold Oct. 40's, AHQJH quote.cboe.com for 4.

Current ATHM position:

08/16/1999 Bought ATHM at 39 1/8
08/16/1999 Sold AHQIH at 3 3/4 (September, strike = 40)
09/08/1999 Bought AHQIH at 1 3/8
09/10/1999 Sold AHQJH at 4 (October, strike = 40)

Cumulative ATHM position:

Breakeven at October 15 (16 actually) expiration is now 32 3/4
Profit if above 40 is 7 3/4

I have to admit, I do love renting stock. It's real good for the IRA.
