Nice,no temptation on earlier pop to mid 38's?

Definitely, but once the option premiums picked up I figured I'd take $1 for a few weeks investment.

AND - I think it stands a good chance of hitting $40 by then. If I'm wrong, I'm in at a fairly low basis. I didn't want to hold through the earnings annoucement, but I'm more than comfortable being in at my current cost.

In another account I did trade in & out today though.

Re: #22: @dav1234 - And lets not forget that little dupont rumor

And lets not forget that little dupont rumor could resurface,looking to take some long when dust settles,small thou, u looking at calls i assume?

Dupont rumor, eh? No cut at you, but I think that kind of stuff is invented by desperate longs. Dupont has denied it, I believe, rather than not commenting.

I had sold at $43+, but bought back in this morning after the conference call. I mostly do covered calls, so I sold the March $40's.

What about you - are you out or in? Are you a trader in PPO or an "investor"?

The conference call was impressive - short-term pain but long-term gain.

Management could put some actions behind their words by buying some stock, though.

Rising RSI on a gap down is usually a tell (moreso in a bullish market). Shows accumulation, IMO!

One is Polypore (PPO), a North Carolina-based company that makes sophisticated filters and separators for use in lithium-ion batteries. According to analyst Craig Irwin at Wedbush Morgan, Polypore supplies the separators for the iPad’s li-ion battery (Polypore hasn’t confirmed this). Irwin’s revelation last week gave shares of PPO about a 10% boost. Cabot Green Investor subscribers bought Polypore in June, making the Apple connection a welcome bonus to what we already saw as a compelling investment.

That’s because lithium-ion batteries are the next generation of batteries that will eventually all but eliminate the lead-acid battery we use in most applications today. Li-ion batteries can be more fully charged more often than lead-acid batteries, lose their charge more slowly when not in use and are generally much lighter for the power they can store than comparable lead acid batteries. In the iPad, li-ions offer over 10 hours of operation on one charge, by some accounts.

Polypore is a leading global high technology filtration company that develops, manufactures and markets specialized polymer-based microporous membranes used in separation and filtration processes. We are a leading worldwide developer, manufacturer and marketer of highly specialized polymer-based membranes used in separation and filtration processes. Our products and technologies target specialized applications and markets that require the removal or separation of various materials from liquids, with such materials ranging in size from microscopic to those visible to the human eye. We manage our operations under two business segments: energy storage and separations media. The energy storage segment, which accounts for approximately two-thirds of our total sales, produces different types of membranes that function as separators in lead-acid batteries used in transportation and industrial applications and lithium batteries used in electronics applications. The separations media segment, which accounts for approximately one-third of our total sales, produces membranes used in various healthcare and industrial applications, including hemodialysis, blood oxygenation, ultrapure water filtration, degasification and other specialty applications. We serve our customers globally with strategically located manufacturing facilities in the major geographic markets of North America, Europe and Asia. We have manufacturing facilities or sales offices in nine countries serving six continents. Our products and technologies are used in two primary segments: energy storage and separations media. Energy Storage In the energy storage segment, our membrane separators are a critical performance component in lithium and lead-acid batteries, performing the core function of regulating ion exchange, allowing the charge and discharge process to occur between a battery's positive and negative electrodes. Primary applications for our membranes in this segment are lithium batteries and lead-acid batteries. Lithium batteries are the power source in a wide variety of electronic applications ranging from laptop computers and mobile phones to power tools, and are emerging in applications such as hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs). Lead-acid batteries are used in transportation and industrial applications. Separations Media In the separations media segment, our filtration membranes are used in healthcare and high-performance industrial and specialty filtration applications. These membranes perform the critical function of removing sub-micron particulates from fluid and introducing or removing gases (gasification/degasification) within liquids. Primary applications for our membranes and membrane modules in this segment are hemodialysis, blood oxygenation, plasmapheresis, and various high performance microfiltration, ultrafiltration and gasification/degasification applications.
