AMAT Nov Week One (11/6) 62 Put
Applied Materials (AMAT) ran up this week alongside the tech sector’s abrupt move higher. Our put is on track to expire worthless and we sell another one next week.
Current Stock Price: $69.65
Action: Watch put expire worthless
CHWY Nov Week One (11/6) 67.50 Put
Chewy (CHWY) has rallied more than 12% so far this week and is 2.6% above our put’s strike price. Therefore, our put is on track to expire worthless, meaning we will sell another one next week. If, however, this volatile stock turns lower today and closes below $67.50, we will accept shares and sell a call on Monday.
Current Stock Price: $69.29
Action: Watch put expire worthless
GILD Nov Week One (11/6) 60 Call
Gilead Sciences (GILD) popped above our call’s strike Wednesday with the broader market but has since dropped back below it. Our call is on track to expire worthless and we will sell another one next week.
Current Stock Price: $58.80
Action: Watch call expire worthless
TGT Nov Week One (11/6) 160 Call
Target (TGT) is up 5% this week and trading a few cents below our call’s strike. If our call expires worthless, we will sell another one on Monday. If the stock closes above $160, our shares will be called away and we will sell a put next week.
Current Stock Price: $159.82
Action: Watch call expire
Disclosure: I have positions or trade in and out of AMAT, CHWY, GILD and TGT.
