OT- not really value investing, but...

While implied volatility is high, it may be worthwhile to consider writing OOM calls on some of your positions.

I usually write OOM calls against ACAS about a month out during the dividend payable month. This dividend capture strategy isn't foolproof, but it works often enough to make it worth doing.
