I believe noone is perfectly right on all his calls, needless to say myself have made plain silly calls (one buying puts on a E-Business stock... which and went out of the money immediately). The problem is that with short calls one has to calculate market times. In bull markets everything appears to be too bright and rosy...as for CYGN, well the stock doubled but so did many others, including quality picks like SUNW or many quality biotechs and semis. But CYGN trades barely at the price before the FDA approval while quality stocks are still ahead...the portfolio approach is necessary. Noone said that every penny must be bet on one pick. As for the toilet paper: I don't know the brand as I do not buy toilet paper over the internet (only stocks). In Europe we have different brands...only 2 brands in U.S? 3M and tuck's [t'aks]... why are they named tucks? Do they make a "tucking" noise when applied? Regards, is
