tech, yes I understand the puts and calls.
they had to switch to buying calls in their buy back program bec.
selling naked puts was just pocketing the cash and they never got put the stk bec. of the runups in dell<gg>
So, the ??? billion(call profit)would be reported as part of the 1.4b??? Or whatever profit was in the calls at qtr end.
