Latest Stock Buy or Sell? Make More Informed Decisions!

Trades around 20x PE. Options: implied volatility is over 30, so you're paid twice as much as the broader market. Because the stock has been under pressure for a long time, these options are more expensive than others. Currently, at May $70 puts you can get $3.90, an attractive 5% return if shares stay flat over 3 months. 

Doesn't own high-PE tech names like this, and shares have run up so much. Maybe wait for a pull back to $90-100 to enter. In this case, he'd sell a put: sell the May $100 put for $8.85; this will generate nearly 9% over 3 months if the stock doesn't drop more than 12%. Can't recommend this. Then again, you can make money if this stock doesn't rise above current levels.

The Brookfield stocks have done well recently. BAM can be decent for calls. You can sell the $60 call to April for $1.20; you're adding 2% yield and still leaving upside.

Very volatile. Options are very expensive. Sell puts $165 April for around $5. 

A great business, good valuations, pays under a 5% dividend.

Are buying back lots of shares. Option premiums are decent. Likes it.

Sell calls at $150 May to get $7.60. 

If the options on a stock are expensive, he will use a call spread because it reduces the outlay. Uses this occasionally. If you buy an expensive option, try to sell an expensive option. A drawback is that if a stock moves quickly and your option is out a couple months, you will realize the full upside. Get the direction and timing right.

Yes, he likes this strategy if you are very bullish. If you like a stock and enjoy upside, great, but if it goes down, then you buy more shares and increase your position.

Cheap 12x PE. Decent yield of 4%. Likes its vertical integration (exploration, production, retail). Options: sell April $56 for $1.70

He likes the carmakers. Trades at 4x forward PE. They're already making money (some companies are not). We don't know what will happen with tariffs, true, but tariffs on non-US carmakers will benefit the American ones. Sell the $45 put for April and collect $1.70.

Are vertically integrated. Will benefit from steel tariffs. Cash flow weakness is behind them. They produce in the US as well as Canada, so they can adapt to tariffs.

Aetna's medical loss ratio (MLR) came in lower than expected and sees that for similar companies and a boost for this sector.

Trump wants to reduce energy price. Near-term, any resolution in the Russia-Ukraine war will put pressure and a ceiling on oil prices.
