Conservative option strategies, what did you buy or sell today?

[fenders53]

Don't push any trades, option or otherwise. You know my #1 rule all too well. Rule #2 is never do today what you wish you had done yesterday (or last week or month). Quite possibly more important than rule #1. The market WILL come back to you soon enough. It's undeniable that world growth is currently slowing and earnings will stagnate for awhile. A trade deal is expected with China soon and the market may run some more. Within days the talking heads will analyze it to death and conclude China has a longer term strategy than we do with an election season about to start. Who knows what our prez will do to try to juice the economy further. He closely follows the SP500 as a metric of success. He knows 401K balances matter when it's time to vote. We are on pace for an up 40% year. That is not going to happen. Nothing justifies anything like that outcome. It would be the mother of all bubbles.
