SB, When Steve stopped posting, I dropped my Covin to English dictionary project. But I think Cramer may use a similar dialect, so I may have to rethink my decision. <G> I love the way he casually mentions how much money you could have made shorting Intel. Of course, you would have had to short it at a time when he was telling everyone is was a great stock. <G> His put strategy is non-sensical. You buy puts when the stocks are up, not when they're already down. I also love the fact that he shows his true colors with his comments about following the trend. This is the old TA complaint. When the market doesn't trend, they have trouble making money. That's because they buy or sell AFTER it has already moved one way or the other. And, most of the time, that amounts to buying high and selling low. But, if you get real lucky and catch a powerful trend, you can feel smart for awhile. <VBG> MB
