Bought some WSCI @ 12.87....It appears that I done good on that one. <<should have, 20/20 hindsight, long put, short call; and i am certain you know that :0)>> Actually I still like that trade ...Just needed some cash. Anyway it wuz 1/2 the last option.

hello tj, todays report, bot one tranche of xdn july calls 95 strike finance.yahoo.com as i am feeling a bit queezy here of late, nonetheless the time seems right as zim is waving his arms and counting his virtual money. added to my position of finance.yahoo.com still holding finance.yahoo.com perhaps tommorow selling puts 90 strike? i fear collapse is imminent as suckers all appear to be aboard the train headed for the moon...

Some new toys started today... First platinum ETNs seen launching Friday marketwatch.com These are futures-based ETNs that do NOT hold physical metal: PTM = long platinum PTD = short platinum I have no plans to trade these. My only exposure to platinum is a dollop of PAL.

hello jay, today's report.... 35% gain for 2 days on XDN calls was too much to pass up. Message 24566866 So I cashed out of my tranche. Travelling too much these past few weeks, attending meetings, learning about this thing and that gadget... Each day, becomming more convinced that soon, manufacturing will be returning in numbers to good old USA, at least for certain products requiring high fidelity like drugs. Or, at the very least, major housecleaning for real, in places such as china. 1200 newly minted FDA commissioners will soon happily press their shirts and wear badges on their lapels so as to tell us all how many cockroaches are hiding in our medicines. Major efforts being made in earnest by chinese regulatory authority to tidy up, and market their capability. Perhaps fear of being outgunned by the skills available in israel and mumbai. Perhaps still just early in the game. Sorry to see you've been jailed, for what I do not know. Twiddling zim's propeller? Or worse... noticed blogspot gone too? Hope not for too long... Cheers, V
