Am long TYC, but sold covered calls three days ago, when stock was at 39-3/8. Never traded any type of option before. What is weird is that, although I will lose on the option trade if I buy back my calls, I would have made 15.2% had I done so and sold my TYC at today's close, whereas if I wait for my calls to be exercised, I only make 12.72%. (The percentages would be greater but the average share price of these lots is 40 5/8.)
