Maurice,

re: "What do you value your
portfolios at ?? Do you use Bid, Asked, or Last Sale ?"

Currently my open positions are mostly options (long and, I might add, painful S&P 500 puts) which are ultimately marked to the mid-point between bid and ask if held to expiration. Hopefully, this will not be the case and I will sell them before the fateful day. So I too, have to use the bid price as the value.

I see Russ has also responded. Thanks.

Mark
