Selling puts on BRCM could be very rewarding. That's not the same as will be rewarding. I think that is why so many people misunderstand taxman's position. The potential downside for BRCM makes put selling a questionable practice that leaves you exposed to a certain degree of risk that many investors do not knowingly account.

To sell puts on BRCM is to say that you believe that the selling is done. Correct? And if so, is the selling done for sure?

Regards,
