Nancy, Bully on the CHKPF buy!! I have been selling OTM Checkpoint Puts for awhile now. Doing well. Buying them back on pullbacks ... selling when it starts moving again. Ready to buy the stock here for a future call sell after earnings. I believe this one will bring us 60 soon. Only My Opinion. I like Ike's TXN pick. I loved AMTX (Which Bart brought to us), and TXN swallowed them up. I believe that TXN will lead us to the new internet backbone standard. Again ... MO Only. Getcher

nancy, agree w. u 100% on this trading drugs. no bugs crawling under the rugs ! I was just looking CD, even afeter drop of 50% this thing is traded at 300++pe. and quickly pressed yahoo -> research and it seems that two analysts had recently upgraded it. what a rotten deal. morg. stanley growth fund was intvested in this company 12% of the fund was in CD lost 5% yesterday. what do you think of CD??? i will look into those other names u mentioned. lets not go after pfe. ok here is an idea: i bot lly, the stock, in a custodial account. now i can go and sell calls/leaps against it and when it pulls back i close the calls. if i can do this successfully for a long term then i will have a long term holding period on the stock. i don't want to do this for pfe. i don't want to take a risk of loosing it. so then i should just buy more pfe for trading only?
