uf: why would you assume the risk of being called against your long-term outlook? Isn't that functionally equivalent to trading? Most of the time, if you are careful and not greedy, you could keep both the stock and the premium. Except during exceptional circumstances. But, like someone else had pointed out on here earlier, if one missed the top 5 days of S&P every year, the cagr over the last 50 years would be dismal. One could easily have bought SEBL at 20- in last few months and written a say $30, 2 month call. no personal thing here, just trying to clarify the fine details of a given strategy. regards Dinesh
