Again I am noticing that certain puts continue to maintain their value as the stock moves down a bit...NEM in particular. Interesting.

Someone apparently downgraded the airlines so DAL should go down a bit today. Yahoo continues to amaze me. I'm going to let my puts run. Got Nov. $110's. I'm ready to lose the purchase, but feel the upside potential in these is a lot greater than my risk. Same goes for the UN puts. The stock continues to weaken, especially in light of Nabisco's 20% decrease in profits announced last night.

Dumped my short positions yesterday in favor of using the cash to buy puts since they provide more leverage and are somewhat less risky.

For those of you interested, I have listed the various web pages I check each day that have information I find valuable for my portfolio. Some of you my have them, but...Enjoy.
