    Rimm

    Sorry to hear that. Don't really follow GS, so don't know what has caused the recent run-up. But given RIMM's p/e compared to Nokia and Palm, I just don't see how this stock can continue to rise based on any fundamental criteria. Hand held devices are seeing more competition and what...

    Rimm

    Too much optimism surrounding this stock. Not good in my opinion. Usually this precipitates a strong decline at the first hint of a warning or earnings miss. Combine that with the option related accounting issues the company is facing (which is no longer considered immaterial acording to a...

    Gift Ideas?

    I guess you didn't watch SNL last week. A 'Dick in a Box' is all the rage.

    Rimm

    Similar situation here. Sold a few calls at 130 a couple days back when it was breaching 125 because I thought it would head lower prior to OE. Also had a few puts in the bag. The calls came into play to bring in extra premium from my puts that were soon to be ITM. So much for that. I'm...

    The dog ate it

    So I take it that running around in a pitbull costume for kicks would not be a good idea?? :(

    The dog ate it

    In theory, dogs are a product of how their genetic composition and the way they are raised and handled. Any large dog has the potential to be dangerous in the hands of the wrong person. I have no idea what the ratio of owners that use the more aggressive breeds for reasons other than "enjoying...

    Why are there No Options on so many ETF?

    Supply and demand. While the number of ETF's in the market are increasing as of late, the volume leaves much to be desired. Many of the ETF's in your list came out relatively a short time ago and most folks may not even be aware that they exist. Unfortunately, options will not be...

    Confidence in George W. Bush

    Don't encourage him. He might take you up on it.

    Confidence in George W. Bush

    All politicians running for presidential election should be mandated to take a basic reading and mathematics exam. Nothing out of the ordinary. I'm talking about the same exam given to 4th graders to make sure they are qualified to move on to the next grade. It's called an FCAT in Florida...

    The IRS might come after me

    Thanks for the reminder DHOHHI. I've been paying the quarterly tax as well, although it is not significant as I pay most of my taxes through withholding. However, I have to admit that I've been contemplating foregoing the est. tax recently. So much for that idea. There's 3 folks you don't...

    The IRS might come after me

    Just curious why one would have to pay estimated taxes on a quarterly basis when theoretically, you have no way of knowing whether or not to expect a significant loss towards the tail end of the year. Then it would just be an interest free loan to Uncle Sam :mad: Is there any one out there...

    How would answer this interview question?

    Be honest. Something like "The boss's wife. My hand would unintentionally find itself up her skirt, hence the reason I am interviewing." Then proceed to ask if that is his wife in the family picture on his desk. :cool:

    Selling Premiums On Stocks

    This may not be the general consensus, but here are my 2 cents: 1) It takes much less work to analyze the economy on an overall basis than it does to analyze specific companies. 3) Entry and follow-up adjustments are generally easier due to a greater selection of strikes and/or months...

    Police fired 50 rounds and killed man after bachelor party

    50 shots?? The guy got off easy. What do you think the wifey would have done to him when she went over to kiss him good morning and smelled her cousin's pussy juice on his breath?

    Option Traders PnL

    Yip, Am I missing a long leg on this vertical/diagonal? If not, how are you dealing with the huge margin required on a RUT naked call? TIA.

    Trouble sleeping

    What you are talking about is a gambling addiction. Step back for a few months until you get your life in order. Your priority at this point is your education, not trading. Your education will be there long after you've blown your umpteenth account. The markets have existed for millions of years...
