the downside...mostly ignored until about 2 weeks ago, I think most people would scoff at a 50% decline in many of the "hot" companies but it is an issue cc writers should consider in the present market...I don't think QCOM is going to crash but some of the smaller companies where cc writers are tempted because of high returns may be more likely to take a big hit...all it takes is one analyst bad mouthing a stock or an "accounting irregularity" to destroy a stock's price...anyway it is something to consider...good luck all and happy Easter...would enjoy coming to the porch party but don't think I will be able to go....
