Yowch! I leave on a business trip, and the thread moves into policy wonking and tax scratch fever!

Apropos of AMAT, I snagged some MAR 50 Puts (ANQ OJ) Wednesday at about 2 1/8. I peeked at the price long enough to enter an order. I didn't get as many as I asked for, but if AMAT drops to 45 in the next week, they'll double. With the recent daily volatility, I should be able to turn that.

So far, my short-term sympathies are with JS and AD - I think we have another trip to the mid/low 40's ahead. However, I'm beginning to look across the valley to plan my climb for the next peak ... nearly ready to take the LEAP. <g>

RE: "...as a rising tide lifts all boats."

Cary,
Different issue. Medical costs need to be addressed. Perhaps rate should be 34 instead of 33. Point is if it goes too high their worries will include food and shelter as well. But you are right and I am open to progressive ideas even if they involve government spending. See I am not so bad... Mike
