What do you think would be a good QCOM play? I noticed the April 50's trading at around 1.50...

Same old stuff. If it ain't broke d, don't fix it. Way to go on the SNDK. It's been very good to me, although I have fewer shares than I would like at the present. I've been buying too early and selling too early now for 20 years. It's something I continue to work on. Currently short RMBS and NTAP Mar 35 calls, OVTI Mar 30 call, and a CREE 30 and RMBS 45 in April. Have sold the QCOM Apr 52.50 for .80 twice and bought back for lunch money, and I am willing to sell again. I've been writting against QCOM a lot less. In a way, I feel that one has earned it's keep and there aren't that many shares I'd be willing to part with. Retired, so am now going through getting used to that. I've spent a good deal of time preparing for it, but still expect it will be a year before I've adjusted. Transitions seem to take about a year for me. Trust you have been well. ARS
