Recommendation
Shares of Logitech dropped sharply after-hours on March 31st after the company issued a statement cutting it's sales and net income before extraordinary items outlook for 2011. The drop is pretty much accounted for by the markets at current prices and Logitech and it provides a very good entry point for the coming quarter.
Entry strategy
For the cautious investor:
Buy the stock for 15.50$ or less.
For the risk-taking trader:
The September 2011 15$ out-of-the-money call option contract seems to be the right position to take, they can be acquired for about 140$ per contract.
Exit Strategy
For the cautious investor:
Sell when the stock reaches 20$, or keep it until 23$ if you are more bullish in your own analysis. It is highly recommended to keep the position on check if it goes sour.
For the risk-taking trader:
The contracts should be kept until the underlying reaches around 20$.
