Actually, IOM was one of the success stories. I also wrote in the money calls (twice) on IOM and made a tidy profit. I was lucky (for once!) to have been out when IOM lost 30% in about one day.

If I do get back to CCing, I'm sticking to established mod to large cap companies with more than one product, as opposed to Vivus, that are at an attractive price that I wouldn't mind owning. Oh yea, I'm more diversified now, not 80% tech as I was in October. Vol
