tb:

Those LEAPs will serve you very well. I'd picked up a lot of the QCOM 2002 200-strike (YQOAD) this past week. Have you read the latest scuttlebutt the QCOM will announce another split at earnings?

I went into this week expecting a slight dip and looking to sell some QCOM puts, (thanks again Rose & Jill). But, after a much bigger dip than I was expecting, I "had" to buy some leaps since I feel very strongly about QCOM's future.

I'm curious how some of our pros, who kindly share with us, decide whether to buy calls or sell puts.

Thanks,

Tony

Smart. I bought 01 200s which were cheaper. Good buy, though.

I believe taxman tends to buy highest up furthest out, that is one of his main strategies.
