NVEI is in stage #2. NVEI is my new addition to the portfolio. I was resisting investing in fintech companies as I couldn’t find any diversified enough to give me the comfort of not investing in companies exposed to cryptocurrency only. It is a purely speculative trade. I plan on holding this and selling Continue reading →
Making 45% Annually Trading Options Against Dividend Growth Stocks
Technical view: Medical Properties Trust, Inc. (MPW)
MPW is in stage #4. The company recently started fighting back against one of the biggest short sellers. That caused the stock to bounce two weeks ago. But the company still faces strong headwinds as the interest rates rise fast and hospital owners are weak. It is ironic that MPW is one of the Continue reading →
Technical view: Main Street Capital Corporation (MAIN)
MAIN is morphing back to stage #2. The stock seems to be performing well and offers a good buying opportunity. It pays dividends monthly.

MAIN was offering great dividends and small growth matching the index Continue reading →
Technical view: Amazon (AMZN)
AMZN is in stage #1. There is still a buy signal for this stock, but the trend stalled. At least we are not going down anymore, again, at least not now. But the weekly chart just flashed a strong buy signal. Let’s see if it holds. The trend may soon morph into stage #2. Continue reading →

Technical view: T-Mobile US, Inc. (TMUS)
TMUS is in stage #3. The stock struggles to break above its all-time high at 155 a share. It bounced off of it and falls lower. The trend is still intact but already vulnerable. On the weekly chart, we are seeing a V-shape recovery from 2022 lows, but it may also turn into a Continue reading →
Stocks additions to the watchlist (JXN, CVS)
Our strategy is to be accumulating assets and then monetize those positions by selling options around them. We are constantly looking for good quality stocks that pay dividends (but also growth stocks), have decent dividends that are safe and growing, and can be optionable. And that is why we are adding two new stocks to Continue reading →
Technical view: PayPal Holdings, Inc. (PYPL)
PayPal PYPL is still in stage #4. It was morphing into stage #1 but failed and resumed its downtrend. It is trading below its 2025 fair value providing an opportunity for 8% annualized growth at the current price. The price action speaks for a probability of a further decline so if you are interested Continue reading →
