Options Primer
There are two types of options – calls and puts. A ‘call’ option is the right to buy a stock at a particular price. Conversely, a ‘put’ option is the right to sell a stock at a certain price. If you believe a stock’s price is going to rise, you buy calls on it.
Here’s a ‘call’ scenario. XYZ Corp is trading at $10 per share and you’re convinced that it will trade at $13 per share within the next three months. So you buy 3 call options with a strike price of $13 and that expire in 90 days. Options trade in blocks of 100, so if you buy 3 calls, you’re buying the right to buy 300 shares of XYZ Corp. The calls cost you $1.50 per underlying share so your outlay is $450. If you don’t sell or exercise the options before they expire, they will be worth nothing and you will lose your entire outlay. But you aren’t going to let that happen!
Basically, if the price of XYZ goes up while you own the calls, the value of your options also goes up. You can sell the options at any time before they expire, or you can exercise your right to buy the shares at the strike price if you want to. So if XYZ goes to $15 and there’s still a good amount of time left before the options expire they might shoot up in value to $5 or more. That’s about a 360% return on your investment! But if the stock remains around 10 or declines, your call options will decline in value and will expire worthless if the expiration date arrives and the share price is lower than the strike price.

Today's competitive global economy results in frequent cross-border movements of staff that results in a growing diversity at the workplace. As the inevitable happens between cultures, breakdowns in communication are a common occurrence. That is certainly costly to the multinational enterprise in terms of workplace relations, returns and revenues, and customer relationship. Not to mention, the firm's competitive advantage.As such, three main obstacles to intercultural communication are identified and accordingly expounded further below. It is noteworthy to the Internationa

Creating BR (blogger relations) instead of PR is practically a new profession, as more publicity buzz gets started by prominent bloggers. Publicists trying to get media attention for a new product, book or service are now pitching bloggers in addition to journalists and the press.But pitching bloggers is vastly different from traditional press relations. New rules apply. If you pitch a blogger the wrong way, you could get written up and publicly slammed by the blogger for everyone on the Internet to see. So how do you go about getting a publicity explosion without it blowi

There are plenty of mistakes in the world of web design. Let's look at what I believe to be the 10 biggest.1. Too Many Ads. When you're trying to make money from your website, it's all too easy to overwhelm your site with ads. Put yourself in your user's place and take a good hard look at your site and ask yourself if the ads feel intrusive. Does the site look like an information source or does it feel more like a page-holder for the ads?2. Plugin Overload. You have to keep plugin useage to a maximum of 1 type per page. If you've got Flash, then you can'

Does exercising once or twice a month get you into shape? Not likely, nor does looking for a job every now and then. If you are out of work you need a job searching routine and here is how to do it.Consider finding a new job to be your current job.Your job is spending 8-10 hours a day doing activities that will lead to and get you the job of your dreams. Just like exercise in the beginning your muscles will complain but when you have done it for a while you will have the body of Zeus. Or more importantly a great job.Get into a routine.It seems easier f
In a put scenario, lets say you believe that XYZ Corp is overpriced at $10 and you believe that it will drop to $8 within 90 days So you buy 3 put options with a strike price of $10 and that expire in 90 days. These options are trading ‘at the money’, that is, the strike price is right at the current share price so you are paying only for the 90 days ‘time value’. Let’s say the puts cost you $1 per underlying share so your outlay is $300. Again, if you don’t sell or exercise the options before they expire, they will be worth nothing and you will lose your entire outlay.
Now if the price of XYZ goes down while you own the puts, the value of your options goes up. And again, you can sell the options at any time before they expire. So if XYZ goes to $8 and there’s still a good amount of time left before the options expire they might shoot up in value to $3 or more. That’s about a 200% return on your investment! But if the share price remains around 10 or increases, your puts will decline in value and will expire worthless if the expiration date arrives and the share price is higher than the strike price.
Risk
While some option plays leave the investor exposed to extreme losses, these two strategies have very limited risk. In either case, the most that you can lose is the amount that you paid for the options. In the call scenario, if the options expired worthless, you’d be out $450. With the puts you’d lose $300.
So What is a Straddle?
If the stock has a history of scaling new heights only to drop to record lows in relatively short cycles, you can make a mint by buying both calls and puts at the same time. This was a popular play during the Internet heyday when tech stocks moved in huge numbers on both sides of the line from one day to the next. It’s gotten harder to find volatile stocks now, but they’re still out there. A little research on your favorite investment site should turn up a few doz
