Something to note, I've taken Shenandoah Telecom (SHEN) out because of an annual dividend payment. I feel that it offer less cushion for myself. I replaced this company with Monsanto (MON) which appear to be on its way to becoming part of the Dividend Achiever. Take a look at this report for more on MON.

My position in UUP Call is under water (-15%) in just one day. That is how harsh the option market can be. You will know how well or bad I do on that position by next week.

Context from Bloomberg's article today.
"Buffett built Berkshire into a $150 billion company over four decades by buying out-of-favor stocks and family businesses."
