YHOO puts..I haven't thought that far but it looks like the only way to save the loss would be puts... If YHOO has a long downturn which I suspect, we could end up with a double or triple bagger. Yep, I'll probably sell in a while (I have the stock).. Not that much but enough, I felt like living dangerously and put a large position in CMRC and PHCM but at this point I'm all in trades but will be out by day's end... Other holdings like COST, QLGC and SEBL up nicely as well, although they are not up monster amounts. I have waited over a month for QLGC and intend to hold overnight, but you never know. I got an e-mail to jump on PRSW this morning,not that I would have but it sure would have made a nice short.

OJ, The problem with YHOO is that it is a major trader stock meaning that this is the stock that multi million dollar traders now use when they want to make some easy money. They trade it up on good economic news and they bid it down on bad news, the last report that they are dealing with was Friday's strong economic data. So it is on a downtrend now even with earnings coming out this week. However if AG leaves rates alone and no tightening bias then you will the traders start to bid it up again. That is the really tough part with YHOO when you just happen to catch the wave with these traders it can be a beautiful run but it is so difficult to figure out what news will get them to sell it. HJ
