Position Update: SEEDby DPeezy on March 25th, 2008 at 1:49 pm |
Bought [[SEED]] Apr 5.00 straddle this morning (h/t: Ragin’ Cajun); sold half the calls (+400% on the day) at market close to lock in a break-even for the position.

UPDATE: SEED earnings are out. Immediate reaction has been positive. Conference call tomorrow morning.











Sweet!
