Miscellaneous:

Covered ASF today for a point and a half, after holding for two weeks. That's o.k., except that I could have had three points after a day, and didn't take it.

Shorted BFIT today at average of 26.205

I've never heard of GNET; neither the stock nor the search engine. It will probably hit 50, just because someone said it's insanely overpriced.

Found their website; it doesn't look too exciting:
go2net.com
Maybe the stock won't hit 50, but it will definitely hit 35 or 40. Just because it's Internet-related, and the world is insane.

>>Right now I feel more comfortable with options and wonder if someone can explain how to figure a fair price on the premium. <<

There are several massaged/improved(?) versions of the original option valuation model(Black/Sholes). I think they recently got a Nobel price from their work). I do not personally use options for reasons I have stated in earlier posts.
