E_K_S - AVNR Thanks for your points. AVNR just did a secondary so they have some cash to move forward, but your point is the same. It's more of a speculation on the company's future sales. I also wouldn't buy the company on its own, but I'm attacted by the covered calls which to me gives me a decent risk/reward. Overall, I think I just thought I'd throw one of these plays out here on this thread, but I think going forward they're more appropriate on the calls/puts for income thread. Thanks for the feedback, and I'd still like to hear about new covered call plays you make on more value stocks. And if I feel like I'm writing calls on a stock that is a value play, I'll bring up my strategy again. For example, I bought SD (ng/oil company) at 5.17 and I'd love to write a covered call @7 in March or June if I can get a decent price. Haven't pulled the trigger yet. Thanks, cwillyg
