Perfect example of why earnings are risky. LMT is DOWN $1.48 on an announcement that net income is up and outlook is lifted. Argghh.

My LMT performed nicely yesterday - up 8%. Looking for a quick pop this AM on the good anouncement.

Sweet! Congrats.

Why would you make this assumption? IV and HV are something I look at and factor into my trades. I've never been higher than a 40% IV in any of my earnings plays except on BUPS when the higher the better. I prefer to hone my trading plan based on my own experiences not someone else's.

Hey, cool site. The past earnings performance section is really great. Donna, the 490/520 didn't do much yet. CNMEQ - sold at 22.20 - ended at 22.30 CNMED - bought at 10.40 - ended at 10.11

Hey - you're in Colorado?? Me too! I'm in Denver what about you?

That's good to know - thanks!

In English? :(

Ok - I'm going in again. This time long in LMT on earnings tomorrow. June 70's...all my indicators point to a few bucks on this one. We'll see.

Thanks Hop.
