walbert, let's not play games here. Yes, of course, you can make money selling puts and writing calls on a stock that's range bound, and yes there are stocks whose puts I sell like a madman for income, particularly in the family portfolio that I manage.
But Intel is an investment to me, not a trade, and management has NOT delivered earnings growth commensurate with what a "good" investment should return. Could you make bank selling calls and writing puts? Yeah, absolutely. Does this mean management has delivered? NO!
Management delivering is AAPL running from $10 -> $700 because its earnings skyrocketed.
