Mike: I tend to agree on the overpriced options bit. But my only strategy thus far is selling the covered calls in stocks I like. Is your strategy selling spreads (either bull or bear) for credit ? Are you tending more towards bear spreads or bull spreads in this market and probably farther out in time (yes/no)? Can you give me a recent example ? In the same vein, although I havent bought any yet I am getting sorely tempted by intc/amd/gtw/dell and mu puts. Any in that area strike your fancy or have you loaded up.... I have been looking at some closed end bond funds. Already own GSF, and sold out DSI when the buyout was announced. What do you think of BKT or PAI ? Also, do you know of a good site where you can sort the funds based on their particular specialty? You mention that their are many good closed end convertible funds out their. Care to mention any you like currently ? thanks
