RE: "So I still have 50% gain for 1.5 years. I have two options to hold them and exercise them at expiration to convert to AMAT stocks or to sell them now to protect whatever gain I have."

Remember that the new, lower capital gains tax rate applies to securities held more than 18 months. Be sure not to sell a day or two early to take advantage of the cap. gains tax rate.

Best wishes,

Sampat,

Use any strength to take your profits. AMAT is a great long term play, but, short term, any significant move is likely to be down.
