Gonzo der Vierzehnte, you're good asking questions. (g) Yes, I did spreads - writing the call later - out of tax-reasons. Without that, I don't like complicating thinks unforced. Stillhalter-Gesch„fte (so the German-term for writing options)? That's hoping that nothing will happen - I've not the mentality of a banker, and I think, you should have at least a part covered for better sleeping and against window-jumping. I'm just short with 500 LU. So I'm learning to understand WHY Bob didn't like going short. When you're long without luck, the feeling is, that you lose a part of something you own - and it will come back "normally". Now, when I'm short without luck, the feeling is, that I'm sliding down the first meters on a - don't know the English term - runway for ski-jumping. Without ski of course. What do you think about the nearterm-trend? Too much money is coming in for a dip? All in PFE? Will LU hit the stars? Jurij
