PLCM.. I was going into that one as well, but I "peeked" at RIG and took that. PLCM is one of my favorites..

e-mail: COMS, MU the gains were during "anticipatory upswing" BEFORE the earnings came out. That's how I recommend the earnings plays to be traded, and how I traded them myself from last Friday through Tuesday. It's the way I mostly play the large cap tech stocks, they usually surge up to 1 week or more before the report. I had two good gains in the last 4 days, sold half my options into strength as well and still have 5 October calls, just in case.. There will be time to get into COMS again after a retreat... MU was another of my earnings plays that played wonderfully for over a week, but fizzled because of some words from an analyst yesterday. The point, however, is the same. GET YOUR PLAY OVER AND DONE BEFORE EARNINGS COME OUT IN LARGE CAP TECHS.. There are some exceptions, of course, but COMS was not one of them.
