Question for the thread - I am planning a CC strategy that will be a major part of providing an independent income, and this thread has been extremely helpful. But here are some important questions for those who have CC'd for a while. (1) Are the present premium values in general fairly equal to what they have been historically...or at least for the past few years? In making my calculations based on a basket of favorite stocks, I'd like to know that I'm not looking at something that is historically inaccurate for reasons such as current market volatility. (2) And in a related question, have you found that premiums reflect any seasonal factors, such as the typical summer doldrums or fall rallies? What this all comes down to is my desire, if possible, to identify three or four stocks that I can repeatedly CC, while retaining them in my account through their various cycles. Of course, this strategy would appear to be sound only if the stocks held fairly predictable premiums throughout the year, excepting of course those special news or earnings that would move the premiums temporarily. Any thoughts? - David
