Thats a strange way to do business: one usually associates a contract with 100 shares????

I retrieved your note from the CSCO thread.

I thought so too. Here are quotes from 2 of my options books:

"An equity contract covers 100 shares of stock"

"In North America, each equity option has the following characteristics: The contract covers 100 shares..."

Freeus,
Hi!!! This market is shaky...but, check out the money coming into the funds...oooh, I wonder where it will eventually go?? There really is little choice ....only a tremendous interest hike and inflation can change this Bull market...they aren't getting me....I surely hope you learned your lesson...should you need reassurance...look in the mirror and say..." Hey, You're a loser!!!" Now, if you like that feeling...sell!!!
:o).......

Hey, why am I telling you?? You were at the table that night at The Drury..... we were discussing all we had seen and learned in Austin or just adding our knowledge...it was a very close knit feeling sitting there finding "new" friends who talked one on top of the other...As Frank told our group at the last Dell Barbecue: "You know I went down there to Austin and found another 40 Kemble's...one just as crazy as the next one"....We had come there..... flown or driven from all over this country...throwing ideas around and around...back and forth....some incredible brain power was flowing into the room that evening...ideas that made so much sense to all of us...the feelings amongst us all were not unique...we concluded this "Dellhead Board Meeting" with a very strong and unanimous decision...and, that is why I will never sell my Dell....
DELL IS THE NEXT DELL...

Best, Kemble

TO freeus
i understand your dilema..........i sold out of dell on that bad october day last year and sold on the open at 71..................it closed that same day at 91 oooooooooooooooooppps..........i felt the pain for a long time
i just finally bought back in at 90 and 107........a long time that i did not want anything to do with a great opportunity..... at first i hated listening to the anal cries that freeus is now experiencing and then i realized you are only verbalizing the agony I and many other people have experienced.........so keep up your bable and the people of this thread will continue to guide and support your every move. and at the same time help all the rest of us who don't verbalize our very same agony..I sold the sept 60 calls last friday and was wondering all week if i would lose my dell.............tommorow is the day of reckoning
so good luck to your patience and dell
