browser, nada so far. I'm probably going to go to stock-only or short-term options until at least January. The market is directionless (despite the up days). I'm not betting past a November tax-selling slump; a November rate-cut spike (thank you Mr. Merriweather); pre-January effect buying in December mixed in with more tax selling (making December as mushy as they come this year); January effect buying last part of December, beginning of January. I'm looking forward to Mike's XRX put choice on the BTTT thread. Have been cleaning house, very aggressively. Still sicker than an old dog, have had time to ruminate on some ugly picks going back to the summer. Outta there. CB
