I had a slew of cash covered put positions go in the money today. I seldom take puts if f I can roll out or down for a decent credit. Gotta love the volatility and time decay. I view it is selling insurance, but you get burned every once in a while.

Sold some F January 18th 2019 $9.87 puts for 1.04 at the open this morning.

Net purchase price of $8.83.

Fords annual dividend is 4 x 15 =.60 plus supplemental dividend of .13.

.73 / 8.83 = 8.27 yield on cost if put to me (which I do hope happens) NAH

In time decay I trust!!
