Wong,

Good points.  I know absolutely nothing about LEAPS, so I'll drag out my
book and read about them.  Might be an excellent trading tool.  O know with
the actual stocks, our risk is limited to what the market does.  With LEAPS,
I assume you have to factor in the time dilution factor.  How big a factor
is this when looking at LEAPS?

Hi Guy:

Thanks for your various posts.

Since you're buying some of the stocks - T, Fon and Wcom for long term
basis (next 2-3 years), have you considered buying some Jan2003 leaps?  (By
July or so next year, you can buy Jan2004 leaps.)


Right now I'm looking at buying some Jan2003 leaps on T.

You can get quotes on options including leaps at the Dreyfus website:
