Thanks Tom. I am back in QCOM, at 64 3/4 & 65 3/8, so I am sweating the downside (the gap between 56 & change & 60 has not been filled). I have done tons of DD & tried to filter the FUD being spread on it. I cannot think of any company with more potential going forward.

However, I am keenly aware of how FUD can bring down even the mightiest of stocks. I held on too long when the FUD was killing QCOM (I bailed last month in the low 70's), so I cannot afford to be wrong again. Although I bought based on my DD & conviction about CDMA's huge potential going forward, I can't discount how these whores are so willing to go in front of TV cameras & in other media & misrepresent, misinform &..... even outright lie.... :-(

So far so good. QCOM is getting stronger as I type even though the NAZ is in the red. Still no news out there....

Be well.

Tim

<<I just told Dealer by phone that I am accumulating because I feel more money will be made on QCOM in the next six months than any stock out there.>>

Whats your reasoning ? Folks simply finally wake up, or it's been a manipulated game all along. I am out of QCOM shares, but do hold some 03 leaps and some shorter term Oct 150's, 200's and some Jan 100's. This morning, I decided to simply ride with the 03's for the long haul, but bail on the shorter term one's if I can get to a break even point. Naturally, the minute I sell those Jan 100's at $9 or $10, qcom will run to $100 and the calls will go wild. Tom, give me a good reason to raise those sell limit orders a little on my short term Q calls.

Thanks as always.....Keith

Hi Voltaire, it has been a while!

Not trying to spam out here, but I am wondering if anyone had an impression on the following scenario:

GMST trading around $50 p/share, has over 53,000 open interest July and Aug call contracts outstanding w/ strike prices ranging b/w 45 and 60. On the put side, the open interest is almost nil.

The CEO of TVGIA reportedly said that the merger is on schedule and may even be announced on Friday. (For the article, see GMST thread w/in the last 20 posts, i dunno how to post a link.)

Like I said before, I am not trying to rev things up at all, but I have not seen such a divergence before and wondered if I should/could interperate anything from it.

TIA all. Noah
