Hello David, I am not familiar with these securities and I have no feel for your investment style so about all I can say is that the premiums seem a little simply -- but aren't they all these days<g>. Since you say you are bullish on these issues in late 2001 into 2002 then I would say you should only cover them over the short term. In that way you can reap the stock price appreciation from an uncovered position later on. Which metrics are important to your decision making process, David? Are you planning to construct a Buy-Write position? In your estimation, what constitutes a "good cc return" over a particular period? Help us out a little bit here so we can get a some traction. :o) Best regards, --fl
