Yayyyyy! Thank you, GP. I'm grateful to read your take on things. And I'm finally looking at AFFX. Did you see CLA sold off a bit near the EOD Friday? I'd love to buy a bit more.

Thanx for chiming in about the puts, Girish. I bought some ATM and OTM calls for next week--curious what will happen. Poet doesn't mind getting put the stock as she wants to accumulate. I would mind as I have DIM March calls I want to exercise shortly. I told her she has cojones of steel--a double pair. Well I hope AFFX will pull back again...but anyway it's on my serious watch radar, along w/ BRCM.

Does your pricing model take in general market conditions?? All I can say is that the DOW drop is a big red flag and the TECH stocks are not immune. My portfolio is 100% tech. I believe that one needs to be concerned about the DOW deterioration and the TECHS are not operating in a vacuum. On the other hand if this correction on the DOW like the last 2 then one would predict down side maximum at this point from here perhaps 4% and < 10 more trading days. The problem is that I don't know if this will be like the last 2 esp with Ally targeting the DOW with a bullet carrying his initials. DoK
