Making 45% Annually Trading Options Against Dividend Growth Stocks
Archive for February, 2020
When the market goes up, everybody complains. When it falls, everybody complains.
So, I was wrong. Yesterday, I posted my expectation of a measured move. And it failed. Twice the futures tried to set up a pullback, twice that attempt failed and markets finished red.

This virus is an old news. Come up with something else. I do not want to belittle the death of people, but just in the Continue reading →
