Alien... slow down, never said you posted anything... I was speaking of a hypothetical situation! I always enjoy your posts and trust you will keep the dialogue going... and all the others like Patrick who find something that rings a bell occasionally. Regarding INTC selling puts... sure it makes good sense from their perspective. If the stock isn't put to them then they get to pocket the premium... its free money, especially if you have a knack for writing options against your stock, which is easier if you can call the sales department and pr department and the r&d department to coordinate your chances.
