Yeah...I saw that...it of course happened a couple hours after I made the trade. I only added to both stocks what was paid in dividends into my account. I haven't figured if I want to pull the plug yet, but I figure it may be interesting. I did see that after that was announced it spiked from 2.00 to 2.30 and finished around 2.09.
If exploring options leads to bankruptcy then it's really bad. If it leads to other things it can be good. I've been long on AMD for a long time and don't have a bunch of exposure at this point. I think the graphics division will have more merit than their CPU. Since my exposure is relatively low I may be inclined to ride the wave for a bit. I also think that the GPUs used in some of the next gaming systems may help their growth.
My dividend strategy is to sometimes take a gamble on something and other times to add to the good dividend stock.
In all honesty, ARR is not a great idea either due to the future tightening of the margins on loans. Again, I used some 'loose' change to make the additions so if it works out, great, otherwise ohh well.

If you are going long anything right now you are crazy. The fiscal cliff is akin to the year 2000 problem. There will be a negative cloud over the market until then.
When it is resolved (and it will be resolved), it will be the biggest buying opportunity of the next 12 months.

I have siri and bought 4/2/2012 at 2.37 I want to get it to one year but not sure at this point. Still up on it but not sure how long that is going to last.
I was thinking, it would be fitting if the "Big One" hit on 12/21.
A real resolution (ie: govt spending under control, no debt ceiling raise) is very unlikely now. Still, there's plenty else that threatens the economy; if they manage a "deal" which manages not to blow it up all at once... I'd take that.
I'm thinking the time is right to go Bear honestly.

The year 2000 problem was actually resolve able with something that cost nothing. The fiscal cliff requires actual sacrifices

I think a conciliatory tone press conference today signals a near term buy.
How about the QQQs going up from the low of $61 today to $67 by Christmas.
Q calls could make you so rich if we get more cooperative news from Washington.
