SMOD, IIT, COTTF SMOD tanked because although they beat estimates by 2 cents, they caution that the future won't be as bright. When doing earnings plays, if you are holding through the earnings day make sure you know what the business outlook for the ticker, or at least the sector is. Beating estimates is always great until the CEO opens his mouth... IIT, I don't play earnings usually. I am playing IIT based on its intrinsic value to the asian market (trades in US Dollars, no foreign debt, position in its market overseas, etc.) and because of the neural nets forcast of near term growth potential to my strike price (21.75). Bought COTTF at $9 this morning. May hold or exit depending on day's action. If large blocks accumulate, will hold. lastshadow
