burryfan,

i agree with you, i have bought leaps in certain special situations the last few years(only have bought puts though), not only if the stock is finally worth something of value, the option premium will explode..... i think if you like a chinese company and it doesnt pay a dividend and can get your hands on some leaps its the way to go.

GFRE is either worth way more than it's selling for, or it's not worth anything.

...

If GFRE is at $30 in Jan 2012...


I disagree. There are a lot of scenarios where GFRE price would be between current $7 and $30 in Jan 2012. In fact, if it went to $20 anytime soon, I'd sell the whole position. Expecting GFRE to be above $20 in a year and couple months is a risky proposition. And that's why I don't use options. :)
