What's the old Warren Buffett saying?

Be fearful when others are greedy, be greedy when others are fearful.

I'm thinking it's a good time to buy some BP.

There's a lot of institutional selling of these energy stocks going on right now. I would wait awhile if I were you. But I'm no expert!

“I’m thinking it’s a good time to buy some BP.”

Depends on how much money BHO gets from BP. I can see BHO trying to break BP in order to send a chill into the energy industry and create some new dependents, (laid off BP workers), for the government.

Be careful there, Huck, m'FRiend. There are AT LEAST 2 other shoes to drop in the BP affair. Good instincts on your part, but, candidly, if you get long right now (or in the near future), you're simply too early.

Full disclosure: SAJ holds bracketed calendar spreads, long Jul/short Jun, and long Aug/short Jun. This style of trade should profit from the IV differentials in the June vs further-out options. SAJ intends to repo some short puts tomorrow on any move lower by BP.
