Mind if I ask why you think GILD will disappoint? I think it has a bright long-term future, so if it is going to disappoint, I'd like to take advantage of the discount.

Mr. Tots is correct.
I'm long AUG 15 110 puts @ 1.20 I'll hold until Monday or Tuesday.

XOM Continues to go south!! I think it's headed below $80 a share.
I know a lot of people here live in the area affected by the spill (so maybe there's still some bad blood), but is there any other reason I see XOM mentioned so often here ahead of BP? On the dividend, 6.3% vs. 3.5% can make up for a certain amout of "iffyness" in this sector. I have BP on a dividend watch list and I'm considering a position ahead of the next ex-div date in a couple of weeks.

Couldn't agree more. Have a large portion of my mom's retirement account in GILD.

XOM is a lot more financially sound company and can weather a much worse oil environment. Sure BP's dividend is higher, but when you buy XOM, you aren't taking as much risk as you are with BP
ETA- I'm a BP holder and am currently waiting to jump in on Exxon

Good point about the potential for a worsening environment. I have XOM on the list as well, along with MRO and BP. Oither than some TOT that I ended up with because of past employment years ago, I've never been much of a player in this sector. The entire commodity sector looks weak, so convincing myself to do much more than take a taste is difficult. This would be a longer term investment, not a trade, so the fundamentals are making me hesitate, even if/when the technicals begin to look better.

AMZN makes $92mil for the quarter. Market cap increases $40bil+.
Its scary to phantom what would happen if AMZN profits 1bil for the year.

Im in it for the long term as well. Timing is hard, so I don't mind if I jump in and it loses 10-15% over the next few weeks/months. I know that oil will eventually come back, and my dividends that are being reinvested are able to buy more shares at this low price.

Well with that report I might hold a smaller position through earnings.

Can't remember who put me onto AMDA, but thanks, good way to end the week, here's hoping next week is even better.

Oil stocks getting pummeled. XOM almost into the 70s!

I was looking at the amount of time left on their patents and their competition. Also a few days ago the 120 calls were being sold.
