After options expiration this weekend, this is where I stand on my positions. I did no investing research this weekend due to the Easter holiday and our driving to and from family houses yesterday. Below is the summary of how my March options expired and my first thoughts on what I might do next.
- My ADBE covered calls expired worthless. I’ll likely re-write those calls or might dump the stock. I still need to chart it. They just beat earnings, so they could rally more than they already have if the rest of the markets continue upward.
- My CAT naked puts expired worthless which means my CAT covered calls were assigned and my CAT shares were called away. I haven’t even checked how I ended on the sum of all my options yet. I know I took a loss on the underlying stock itself.
- My DWA covered calls were assigned so I’m finally finished holding those shares.
- My NYX (March 80, wow was I ever off) covered calls expired worthless. I’ve already written new covered calls for April 60 which are now ITM. I’m letting that ride to see if it comes back down again or just gets called away next month.
- Both sets of my NVDA covered calls expired worthless. While I’m begging for a rally that takes them back above 25, I’m going to have to consider selling some of my shares. Just like I said last month, 800 shares is too much of a percentage of my account. It nearly did me in over the past five weeks, so now I have to deal with it.
