Ed,

I agree absolutely, DELL still has an excellent YoY equity price gain so there should be little pain holding DELL, but for many of my good friends here in the DELL thread there is trading whiplash in a leveraged position (just as it was in the last earnings) which frustrates me very much ... I don't know what I can do so I go on repeating my personal experience with margin where I lost 96% of my net worth in a matter of weeks.

BTW I told my father that I was making about 6-7%/month holding DELL LEAPS, he wondered if I have gone into the loan sharking business!

-BGR.

...conclude that a 12% return per annum is exemplary....

Is that really you Ed?.... all that work for 12%.... Goldman Sachs Capital Growth boasts 33.9%, 36.1%, 21.4%, 25.7% last 4 years.... maybe you should consider funds...<GGGGG> ...and to think I've been one of your ardent students of the PUT strategy.... oh, if only my shorts could expire early...
