Blimey, I didn't know how good that call on Netflix would be - it's up almost 42% for the year already! I bought a $95-$100 call spread for January 2013, thinking there was an outside change it would get there by the end of the year, and it's almost at $100 a week later - crazy stuff!
AAPL, ORCL, FFIV, and JPM are all up 4-6% for the year as well. Hope it lasts - earnings season starts tonight, so that's probably going to decide if the run continues or fizzles.
I'm getting more and more bullish on AAPL. The news just keeps getting better and better - they are making crazy inroads in the enterprise, which is expected to account for $19b in sales this year and $28b next year. Factor in China growth and new products this year, and everything is looking really really rosy. I know I'm a lone Apple fan around here, but I really think you could make some money with some calls or call spreads. Just have to time it right (might be some profit taking after hitting the new high today). I'm buying February call spreads, so I capitalize earnings on the 23rd.
