Hey Yousef: Do tell...Does writing puts not only limit gains on the downside but expose one to significant losses in the event of the big "bear run"??? Not exactly the investment strategy one would expect from a sophisticated "big bear" man investor, is it? Just exactly what does your options primer tell you that is different??? Oh, and while you are at it, haven't heard from you or the other AMD naysayers about what revenues you think AMD will achieve in 99Q4? Mr. negative $0.62, if I can read into this number, is projecting less than $750 million, but above 99Q3 revenues of $672 million. Management has projected somewhere above $800 million, so I would have to guess you naysayers, who have a history of contradicting any AMD projections, are coming in under $800 million, are you, Mr. primary options man? Bet you're as wrong on your under $800 million revenues (if indeed my assumption is accurate) as you are wrong on your expert understanding of the implicationmms of writing puts. Come on yousniff, put your other foot in your mouth this time!
