>> woaW, talk about bad timing, I bought a load of puts today, Ugh! << You mean bad timing for the shorts or bad timing for the person who paid 200 for YHOO? Odds are that the person paying 200 for YHOO will lose if he holds.

well, sorry to see many folks go under being on the wrong side on this one ... but ... having done my due diligence :-) on Yahoo early on, I had discovered that Jerry Yang and David Filo anagrammatically stand for: "Jarringly avoid defy" ! :-) ( ==> their enterprise would be super-successful ... would defy all logic of fast-climb ) (If there is some club for "super-intelligents" out there on this planet, these 2 gentlemen definitely belong to that club imho :-) ) cheers everyone, regards to all, -/Sonny.

Don't Worry Apache, YAHOO will fall as early as 8:30 AM CST. Actually, your strategy was a more logical play (in my book at least) than the guy who went long at 190...Anyway, I'm short at 198, I will cover if it even opens close to 199, which I obviously don't think will happen, even IF they announce a stock split.

Well friend-- I would advise that you take TWO aspirins and see me in the morning BUT its gonna take more than TWO aspirins to put the Shorters of Yahoo out of their misery. More Like TWO Bottles of aspirin, if you know what I mean ???? So YES Friends we have a Feeding Frenzy and as CNBC as noted, Mr.Cohen from a major Brokerage House states that some HEAVY hitters are indeed COVERING their shorts and THAT is akin to throwing Gasoline on a Fire. So TUESDAY we may indeed see continued run up in YAHOO and LYCOS. Just think what will become of Mr. Shortie if Yahoo were to announce that a 3 or 4 for 1 was approved or perhaps MORE talk of Take over or perhaps Partnership<more likely>will come to light. Soooooooooooo Friends sit back and ENJOY the ride UP and maybe take a little off the table while we all are admiring the view. I DO NOT want to be SHORT these internet plays because IT could GO on and on just like the EverReady Bunny and AMAZON.COM. "Cheers"
