Steve, I know! In such nasty trading day I was just trying to make
you smile, that is all my friend!

By the way, I bought yesterday CPQ at55.5, hoping to have caught it at the bottom. Steve, where are we going??? Do you see CPQ under 50??
I was wondering if the split and div. wouldn't help the CPQ to go up
to 60 to 65 by the year end, but from the look of it the Asian flu
is just a tough one for the market to shake-off! Any opinion, please

I am a stupid one in the 99% so my opinion has little worth. Nonetheless, to the extent that Dell and Compaq move together, Compaq seems to have held up while Dell sank. Is this a good sign?

Steve,

You warned me months ago about buying CPQ options....
and I just want to tell you that your ABSOLUTELY right...
i've had my head handed to mean, and then some, so to speak; however, i am not willing to give up!
How do you feel about this strategy....

picking up some january 60 calls.....
on a day like today....or another down day...maybe even the 58s
and on the rally, picking up some jan 50 puts.

i read some of the posts that you recommend to me, and again
thanks for the useful information!
