    Feds eye retirement-fund tax to cut $16 trillion-plus deficit

    I've been concerned about this for some time (gov conf. 401K in some form), and have thought about NOT contributing to my 401K, but am still doing that for tax purposes. Friends, co-workers believe I'm "over-the-top" the few times I've brought this up, but I believe we'll find out the hard way...

    AAPL for a one week trade?

    I'd short it instead...stop a few pennies above the 460 area...Go long if it should close the latest earnings gap, or around the 425-430. Or better yet, just day-trade AAPL... :)

    Should I panic about my short position on Apple calls?

    Totally agree...small loss...basically nothing vs. potential for several hundred K's... Option traders: Could he buy calls (strike at 475/500), and get out even if stocks ramp to 475+ by expiration? Or will it cost a lot more than just get out now, for less than 20K loss? If AAPL trades...

    Should I panic about my short position on Apple calls?

    True statement...but he only needs a few weeks, right?! (Though it won't take a lot for AAPL to trade through the 470 area, it gapped up to 469'ish on the eranings report). And the stock is indeed in a upward channel... GL to him/her...

    Should I panic about my short position on Apple calls?

    Go back a couple of years and look at AAPL's movement after earnings...Usually it's gapped up, then sold off some...Will it repeat this time, who knows?! Market looks kinda toppy...but might get toppier still ;) Good luck.

    I'm also thinking a non-compete clause prevents him from doing anything (for "x" number of years)...Let's see what happens... So far I'm a very happy QuoteTracker & IQ Feed user for almost 10 years.
