I haven't researched it.  Hadn't heard of it until you and Otter were discussing it last week.  I am trying to not add too many more new names.  We'll see how long that lasts. 

What I need is for tech to get hammered for real again, but this market is resilient.

Very small trades this morning.  Added a few shares to DG-ARKF  Sold a few SLV puts.

There are dozens of EV, green energy etc stocks that have made a similar run last 12 months.  They pull back hard and then you realize you'd still be paying 5X or more of last years price.  I bought a few of them last year and thought I was doing well when I took a 20% gain in a few weeks.  TAN ETF would be one of those.  So tempted to get back in some of them but I know I'd regret it unless I just swing trade them.    

Back to reality I think I will sell some out of the money puts today just to get some cash back to work.

the other day i bought xom/kim/o/ipoe/gild/baba/stag/tdoc/z/zm

[ken-do-nim]

On behalf of vbin:

vbin
Sold ABBV, TEVA, BMY puts.

***

I've been tempted to add to ABBV since it's down, but I think my position is large enough already.

XOM is an interesting one, since it is started to head back down in price. Bargain? Dunno.

KIM is neat I never saw that one before. A REIT that has doubled in the past year. I should share my 'value' stocks and funds because, while they haven't doubled in the past year like that one, they all pay 8%+ dividends and have been on the rise in price (thanks to rising interest rates?).

[fenders53]

I have vowed never to chase oil again but it's hard to imagine a thesis that XOM doesn't have some upside to go along with that Div as travel resumes. I have been selling puts and will continue to until I get pulled into a few shares. IMO oil got ahead of itself but $60bbl is reasonable soon if not already.

[fenders53]

Sold a few XOM strike 55 puts to start the morning. Dividend play as they expire before ex Div date. I am good with owning oil through the summer.

I decided to buy PSX and VLO today over XOM. 

The Texas winter storm will only have a temporary hit its first-quarter 2021. I see blue sky's after   

I only own CVX, VLO and now PSX

3 oil names is my maximum 

Also added some ABBV before the ex dividend 

I will wait for the 8-10% correction in UTES and then add some names there.

CVS on watch list

[divmenow]

Make that 4 names now lol. Added MPC. I'm liking the chart

Ok that's enough buying for today lol

I will probably nibble another one or two before long.  I won't get sucked into the $100 oil dream again as it never lasts and a longterm slow fade is reality in just a few years.  I made a little money off the crash but not enough.  I can't fix that now. The option premiums are very good and I get in a little cheaper if oil pulls back.  If not I will take my income win.  Eric is right, production capacity has been cut back so anything like a decent economy expansion is protection. 

Too much cash and Friday options will expire so I'm probably not done today.  I will continue to be careful to avoid the market crash I don't actually think is coming anytime soon.

I picked up some RA today to bring my dividend/quarter estimate up to $900, which is where i want it. As far as my taxable account goes, I'm done with moves now for the foreseeable future. My ROTH is greedily awaiting the IRA conversion and its cash infusion, and I'm going to learn how to make conditional sell orders.

But mostly my next big project is getting a price on my grandfather's stamp book, then finding a buyer.
