For a hedged play on this stock, look at a Nov '08 50 covered call (AMX KJ) for a net debit in the $46.90 area. That is also the break even stock price for this trade. This covered call has a 78 day duration, provides 5.92% downside protection and a 6.61% assigned return rate for a 30.93% annualized return rate (comparison purposes only). A lower cost hedged play for this stock would use a longer term call option in place of the covered call stock purchase. To use this strategy look at going long the AMX Jan '10 30 Call (YXG AF) and selling the Nov '08 50 call (AMX KJ) for a $17.95 debit. The trade has a 78 day life and would provide 3.81% downside protection and an 11.42% assigned return rate for a 53.00% annualized return rate (for comparison purposes only).
