    What aren't all options cash settled?

    Am thinking of the "basics" of options. Call..."Hello, I want your shares (even after close)"... Two other things come to mind...GameStop and USO (oil going negative). LOL...

    AAAAAA!!! Avis/Budget...CAR

    So I looked at my Fidelity account this evening. The shares did not get called away...I get the special dividend (which I wanted). The strike price has been reduced to $200. from $210. I try to tax plan for some of my trades... If this gets called away (still can happen till the end of the...

    AAAAAA!!! Avis/Budget...CAR

    As I write, CAR is plus $10.42 ($204.00)!! It seems (since the Fed stayed put) that everyone is trying to grab for that special dividend. You have value investors, option traders, short traders trying to place their orders. Just wondering if I will get called away this afternoon...

    Mortgage Revenue Bonds

    Do you invest other people's money?? I just grabbed this off of Schwab...We talked about this subject over 3 years ago. I don't know if this would apply to your company. But, if they file a K-1 it might... Taxes on distributions not received. According to the SEC, MLP unitholders may still...

    Mortgage Revenue Bonds

    My two cents from reading and what my CPA said. You are a GENERAL partner in this company...There is no LLP. My CPA told me to never own something where you get a K-1...A ton of liability. It should NEVER be in an IRA or Roth IRA. You could lose more that what you have put into it, to...

    AAAAAA!!! Avis/Budget...CAR

    I typed this in on Google...Again this has happened to me before. "Do option strike prices get adjusted for special dividends?" Most frequently, the strike price of your option will be adjusted lower to reflect the amount of the special dividend. For example, a one-time cash payment of $5...

    AAAAAA!!! Avis/Budget...CAR

    These are just my thoughts... PE Ratio (TTM) 4.15 EPS (TTM) 45.56 They can't keep it up. These profits are from the chip shortage. They are charging a bundle for their rental cars...And getting it. They would then turn around and sell the cars for a much higher price than what they bought...

    AAAAAA!!! Avis/Budget...CAR

    The more I think about it the more I think you are correct. I will get the special dividend. The $10. will go toward the option when and if it gets exercised. So instead of $210. it will be treated like $200. Again, about 20 years since this happened to me...

    AAAAAA!!! Avis/Budget...CAR

    About 20 plus years ago this happened to me. ALL regular dividends I would keep...Special dividends go to the option holder (unless things have changed).

    AAAAAA!!! Avis/Budget...CAR

    So I have two covered calls on CAR Jan 21 $210. The stock dropped about $9.50 today. I really don't want it to get called away. I was even thinking of buying back the option, then write another covered call. Then this happened tonight!! Avis Budget Group, Inc. today announced the...

    That was a copy and paste (Google) concerning UTMA...Their first response. So yeah, it is valid. I won't get too technical...I was in the middle of a UTMA (a mess)!! Lawyers were involved. I had to take over responsibility for a trust!! NO FUN!! Just saying, I have first hand knowledge of...

    Robinhood (HOOD)...What am I not seeing??

    I know what it did today. But, could this be a .com bubble stock?? A few years ago it seemed that they had a $50,000,000,000. (fifty billion) market cap!! They had one quarter where they squeezed out a 2-3 cent profit (smoke and mirrors). Every other time it's a loss. The market rewards...

    B. Riley (RILY) debt securities taking a hit...

    Just wondering...Could some of those kids (when they turn 18) sue R. Riley for not protecting their trust (Uniform Trust for Minors Act)?? Did the company break the fiduciary bond responsibility??? The primary responsibility of fiduciaries is to run the plan solely in the interest of...
