Wade Cook would never have bought IOM if it hadn't split; he's a real small potatoes kinda guy. FIDO

Teddy: Wade Cook is a hypester and infomercial jockey who advocates very risky strategies to the uninformed. He trades IOM all the time. Despite my contempt for his marketing option and even naked option strategies to the public, it is interesting to see him around again. One of his most prominent "strategies" is to buy stocks that are splitting. If he had done this with AMAT or CPQ earlier this fall, though, or had his followers do it, they would not be happy campers right now. Mr. Cook also has a very checkered past, which he doesn't disclose in his books and other materials.
