Kudos to blogmaster Adam Warner of the Daily Options Report.
In this weekend's edition of Barron's, Kathy Yakal in No Investor Left Behind (subscription required) recommends Adam's blog.
Some consider trading options -- derivative securities that are usually more complex than simple stocks -- a kind of graduate course for equity investors. Blogmaster Adam Warner of Daily Options Report (adamsoptions.blogspot.com) has been a professional options trader since he became a member of the American Stock Exchange in 1988 (he's now trading off the floor). His site's goals: to teach investors about the product and to dispel some of the misconceptions surrounding options.
This is the kind of blog we like best: numerous daily postings, links to external content, and commentary and charts. And it doesn't offer a lot of specific picks. (We prefer this approach since it doesn't ask readers to make a leap of faith -- or expose them to possible financial losses.) We were puzzled by the artwork Warner drops in, including a movie poster of Action Jackson and a photo of an unidentified Kiss band member. (We're sure there's some rationale that we're not getting.) But Warner's regularly updated posts are clearly written and insightful, educational and sometimes entertaining. Recent entries included musings on volatility, stock buybacks and backdating, comments on indexes, links to articles and comments from pundits like CNBC's Jim Cramer and occasional sports editorials. We haven't run across many good options blogs. This is one to bookmark and enjoy.
I am extremely pleased for Adam. I thoroughly enjoy reading and learning from his blog. I completely concur with Kathy's comment ...posts are clearly written and insightful, educational and sometimes entertaining.
Congratulations Adam!
