Host Hotel and Resorts (HST) Profits

April 16, 2009

ACTION:

Sell 50% of the HST July 5 Calls (HSTGA) for $1.90 or better


Dear Fellow Options Traders,

On April 2, we recommended you buy the Host Hotel and Resorts (HST) July 5 Calls (HSTGA) for 90 cents or more. The stock is up 11% today, and we can sell these calls today for a 110% profit.

As often is the case, we like to take 50% of the position off when it has doubled. Since the institutional trades that got us into the position are still there and there is plenty of time until the July expiry, we hope to take more from the this trade in the future.

We recommend selling half your HST July 5 Calls (HSTGA) for $1.90 or more.

Have a great day trading.
