Let's Review, Shall We? Sweet

FAZ is up a mighty $48 from last Sundays call. I thought it was a good time to review some pretty good calls over the last week and over the past weekend. Some gapped down, but most of the picks gave us an opportunity to make a killing.

Calculating gains from my short trigger prices, these are today's gains:

FAZ + 18 points (just today)

BAC +1.38

UBS + 1.03

HBC flat but up over $6 from Fridays twitter shout out

BRK-B + 139 POINTS (5%)

AAPL + 1.80

AXP +1.45

V +2.80

RBS - gapped down 70% -no trade

MA - call was short low 120's closed 119 but opened a 126

GS +10

Not bad action for a day, I traded mostly FAZ today and some GS and STT from short side. Is there any other side? If you guys had luck with these names let me know.
