{Recent AC favorable meetings haven't produced much in the way of upward bounces.}

This is the same Robert Misbin we recently discussed. He's not waiting for tomorrow's meeting committee meeting to declare his opinions.

Whether Misbin is right or wrong, I think it's completely inappropriate for a reviewer to make strong public statements in advance of the review.

Peter,

>>Straddles around the times of these meetings are mighty expensive - I'll be interested to learn how you do on yours.<<

You got that right! It was fun to try, though.

Message 16154626

Actually, I made about 1/4 point per straddle after trading expenses. I suspect that holding the puts for a few more days might yield a bigger gain, but I got cold feet.

Cheers, Tuck (who in your shoes as an owner would have bought a few puts)
