<< Re: JPR calls

Looks like a good play, BP. Keep us posted. I'm interested.>>

The Juniper Networks July 290 calls are now July 145 calls after the recent 2/1 split. The stock has had a huge rally in last several weeks, doubling from the recent low. However, although it poked up above the strike, it failed to make a new high and has corrected down again the last few days, trading now as I write at approximately 140.

IMO the valuation levels and option premiums are so huge on this stock that I would not mind if necessary being short at 145 plus my original option premium, and if assigned, will keep on selling covered puts until the short is closed.

Tom, I covered the Juniper short today that resulted from being assigned on the short July 145 calls (orig. July 290).
