Howard, "So do you think options is a good way to play this and get more leverage?" I just don't know how to reply to that. Depends entirely on your personal situation. You certainly get more leverage, but the premiums are pretty high. You know, there ain't no such thing as a free lunch. You're not privy to any inside secrets here and the market is trying to put a fair value on both COMS and it's options. You've got to decide for yourself if the option premiums are too rich or if they're a good deal. That said, I happen to have a couple Marches that I bought with the profits from some Feb 40's I sold.
