Motorola will go ballistic the rest of the week. Closed at 151 last friday. To expensive to buy stock shares, but not when you buy call option contracts. Jump on board and double or triple your money this week! I already tripled my money the last 2 weeks with Motorola MOT. Don't pass up a good opprtunity!

And with Iridium going bankrupt...something doesn't make sense.

(I'm still keeping the I-phones though; if it's good enough for Congress and Alan Greenspan...the satellites must not have those 386 chips like the Hubble did.)

freddie, which strike price would you recommend?

Sales only increased 2 percent from last year. That's not much for a high flier like MOT. The stock was down 5 when I checked it a few minutes ago.

They released numbers that WERE consesus estimates. They did not blow out the number that analysts were expecting and there are questions about things like revenues and some income from one time sources.

If you did buy expecting MOT to become a dot.com you saw by today's movement this guy noticed a tree but forgot about the forrest.

The reason Motorola went down today is that many Mutual Funds are jumping on board with hundreds of millions of dollars. They bid low to get in at a better price before it takes off. The small investor pays the going rate, but the big boys get a better price. It has been predicted that Motorola will go to 200!!!! This is simply a pullback and nothing to worry about. Pullbacks happen every few days with most stocks! Don't let it worry you! I got in at the 150 strike price. One contract is worth over $2000.
