Update Transaction - Omnicare (OCR)

After a large drop in the share price of Omnicare, I chose to buy back the June $27.5 call. I am currently reviewing Omnicare as part of my portfolio, and may sell a $25 June call in order to increase my likelihood of exiting the position. The increasing discussion of a nationalized health care plan is beginning to impact healthcare stocks in my opinion. The purchase info is below.

4/27/2009 -- Bought 100 OCR @ 26.465
4/27/2009 -- Sold To Open 1 OCR May $27.50 Call @ 1.25
5/15/2009 -- Call Option Expired
5/19/2009 -- Sold To Open 1 OCR June $27.5 Call @ 0.95
6/6/2009 -- Bought To Close 1 OCR June $27.5 Call @ 0.15

If stock is called at expiration:

Downside Coverage (based on current share price): 1.6%
Possible Max Upside: N/A
