PL Dividend-Like Income Using Covered Calls
With PL at 10.47, here's a table showing how big the annual "dividend" (i.e. total annual call premium received) would need to be to attain 3%, 5%, and 10% annual yields. Also shown is the equivalent number of cents/day necessary to achieve each yield:
Annual Yield | Annual Premium | Cents/Day |
---|---|---|
3% | 0.31 | 0.1 |
5% | 0.52 | 0.1 |
10% | 1.05 | 0.3 |
So now we need to find out of the money covered calls that pay at least the prescribed cents/day amount of time premium. That will generate income and, because they are out of the money, leave room for some upside potential on the stock. Here are some examples:
