OTOT.....not about options

I did buy some VISX this morning on the drop. Still holding at a slight loss.

This is a quality company, a leader in its field, with enormous profit margins, exceeding 30% after-tax. Down over 60% from its high and with growing earnings and a modest PE relative to today's flyers.

What more could anyone want? The only fly is the downgrades by analysts. I think they are wrong at $31/share.

i have not had a chance to read what the news on visx is today. this is about the third gap down in just a few months. so i'm not rushing in. i'll get back to you next week on whether or not i may buy more calls.
