Wish I was an AMAT bull. I would be selling right about now for a nice profit. Guess that tells you where I stand. Bad taste and a bear to boot. Here is my question - Anyone that wants to answer, feel free. I need all the help I can get. If you want to keep this off the thread you can PM me. I realize I am out of my league in here but if I stayed within my league (feel really comfortable in my son's first grade class) I don't learn near as much. So here goes and laughter is okay as long as someone answers the question. Please keep in mind the only way I have ever bought a stock is the missionary position. And they claim the President hasn't taught us a thing (g). Today Michael added to his 90/10 portfolio. 1. Cisco April 70's-cyqpn. Let's just do one at a time. I read his article about the 90/10 approach. I understand the concept (mostly). I understand what a call and a put is (impressed so far?). I know he is buying CSCO and that he expects this stock to go down (A PUT). Also this option expires the third week (?) of April. That's as much as I understand. I have learned alot reading this thread, I'm just not sure what to do with all this information (g). Thanks in advance Denice Denice
