Sold an ENPH put strike 210 because I am brave like that lol.  Over $550 income for two weeks work.  What could possibly go wrong?  

It seems high PE and small caps have resumed the regularly scheduled beatings.

My top was CVS, though I only have 2 shares

Huge swings lately.  I need to go back to my plan of not looking until Dec 31st, but I want to see AVGO's dividend increase effect on my Estimated Annual Income.  Will probably take a few days.  At $7230 now (~$600/month); the plan is between more funds pouring in from company stock to dividend raises that I reach $10,800 next year ($900/month), then $14,400 the year after that ($1200/month).

The Estimated Income tab is a thing of mystery.  Now it says $7557 but still has AVGO at 3.60/share.  Must be reflecting other dividend increases, where the old December number just got replaced.  Heh, I don't mind going up $300 in dividends every few days without acquisitions.

In other news, I just realized I can sell $35k of company stock without tax consequences right now, because the purchases were made at a higher price than it is currently.

Buy high and sell low is the secret to investing success.  You know I am kidding.  You are overweight your company stock and you don't work for MSFT.     You could diversify right into another software company if you decided to, or not.  

Yeah, I may wait for February to see if the Q4 results give us a jolt; often when Q3 is lower it is because deals either closed early in Q2 or late in Q4.  I have no insider info.  Or I may just move the money this week

I solved my E*Trade mystery.  Every now and then, TECL gives out a fairly large dividend, but it is usually once a year.  E*Trade just assumed on the Estimated Income tab that it became quarterly, which it won't.  However, since E*Trade also doesn't add in the bonus dividend that HTGC has been giving, it's probably at a more correct figure now anyway.  AVGO just kicked in, putting me up over $7600
