A very busy and very good day today.  after the downgrade by Goldman Sachs with SINA the stock fell out of bed.

 

I covered some of the short and I am holding about half through the weekend as I switched from covered short stock to using naked calls as a synthetic short.with the premium as high as it is and a three-day weekend I would rather have naked calls then stocks short. I had a few other trades today and although not as big as SINA it made for a good day.

I had an overnight with CSR that has a buyout offer for $6.50.

BIIB was a gap up Brenton
