paper, almost every time a take a put position on these big mo companies i get killed almost immediately with a strong up move.

try buying into a straddle. use the call profits, if any to reload on another straddle. keep doing this until the bk hits.

maybe it will work... wish i did it with amzn...

good luck...

Don't own it, but they are an investment group, investing in fish oil with no day to day involvement in the company. They are affiliated with Malcom Glaser, the owner of the Tampa Bay Bucaneers.

Read the Barron's writeup on ZAP a few weeks back, in Eric Sevitz's technology column. ZAP's assets are worth 17 (before the earnings surprise), so the Internet assets are really not being valued that highly. There's not too much hot air in this one. Yet. <g>
