I don't like to loose. If that means minimzing exposure you are correct. IMHO a good investment is one which makes sense both long and short term. After the recent tech crash in which I gave back all of the profit I made this past summer, my investment strategy has become somewhat more conservative.

robbie,

Re - "<<If you sell naked Puts in this environment you have extremely large kahones! My advice: A missed profit is better than a large loss.FWIW>>"

I think he wanted us to sell them when AMAT was 50 and everyone was euphoric. I mean, you can't lose when everyone is happy can you?

Hey, if these Puts don't work, I won't listen to my paperboy anymore, how about you. <g>
