My most sincere, heartfelt appreciation to the great PMs and public posts regarding my cash generating conundrum.

I pulled the triggers at lunchtime. Here is what I did.

Premise:
1. Very bullish on QCOM through Jan 2002.
2. Very bullish on SEBL through Jan 2003.
3. Bullish on SNDK and wish to establish a long core position.
4. Bullish on CREE and wish to (re)establish a long core position.
5. Bullish on MSFT through Jan 2002.

So I:
1. Sold 1/3 of my QCOM longs,
2. Replacing sold QCOM longs with equivalent position in 2002 QCOM Calls @ $100.
3. Bought chunk of SEBL 2002 Calls @ $160
4. Sold entire MSFT long position.
5. Replacing sold MSFT longs with equivalent position in 2002 MSFT Calls @ $80.
6. Bought CREE longs.
7. Bought SNDK longs.
8. Had enough cash left over for next quarter's living expenses.

Now I can cut the brown grass.
