| 10 Picks To Buy On Weakness |
|
 Yesterday Oppenheimer released their list of 10 Picks To Buy On Weakness, based on stocks that have come off a new high, have a bullish relative trend, and screen positively for trends in earnings revisions. The resulting list contains some stocks that make good candidates for covered calls as well. See our article 10 Stocks To Buy On Weakness (and write covered calls on).

| 9 Dividend Stocks For Uncertain Times |
|
 A couple days ago Jeff Reeves of InvestorPlace wrote about 9 Solid Dividend Stocks For Uncertain Times. He points out that now could be a good time to invest in companies with sustainable dividend distributions (those with conservative payout ratios) where much of the negative news has already been priced in. Some of his 9 companies trade at bargain levels, while others have managed to hold firm during 2015 (on a total return basis).
We, of course, start with that list and layer on some covered calls for even more protection. See our article Solid Dividend Stocks For Uncertain Times.

| 6 Ways To Do Stock Repair |
|
Nothing like a 1000 point drop in the Dow to get your attention. Assuming you didn't panic sell you are probably still holding stocks that are below your cost. We wrote an article a while ago that shows 6 ways to repair your underwater positions. The numbers may have changed since the article was written but the strategies are the same. Please see 6 Ways To Do Stock Repair.

| Covered Call Reading Material |
|
 We are frequently asked about which of the many books on covered call investing we recommend.
There are several good ones but we like New Insights On Covered Call Writing by Lehman and McMillan. Although it's a few years old, the concepts and strategies haven't changed (with the exception that we now have weekly options). It is thorough, well researched, balanced and objective. None of the 'get rich quick' mentality you find in many of the other covered call books. Recommended. Read a preview of it on Amazon.com. (click on the "Look Inside" graphic when you get to Amazon.com).
