Buying common and sometimes call options…

Buying common and sometimes call options on AAPL from $7 to $160 and GOOG from $95 to nearly $600 were some of the trades/investments that helped shape my career.  I do expect I’ll get an opportunity to be more aggressive in each of these two stocks in coming months, as time and price move and new opportunities arise and I’ll look to add some call options at some point in the future. But for now, I’m going to buy just a tiny bit of common in these two names to start re-building what were consistently my two largest positions in my hedge fund from 2002 for Apple and 2004 for Google until the day I closed in late 2007.
