The highest-yielding stock in Warren Buffett's portfolio, relative to cost basis, is beverage-giant Coca-Cola ( KO -2.21% ). Coke also happens to be Berkshire Hathaway's longest-held stock, with a continuous position since 1988. The latest Berkshire shareholder letter shows a cost basis of...

For me the question is...Do I want to own Coke at $55. in Jan 23?? With the option money, dividend money, float from the option/dividend (earning say 3%), the answer is yes. If it's at say $55. I will still have my 100 shares and can option it again...Still get the dividends. People will say...

Yeah, I know; Russia/Ukraine, Coke closing there, McDonald's closing in both countries. This company adapts and always seems to come back. I asked my wife before we bought it (just 100 shares)..."With inflation, will people go back to the movie theaters and buy a Coke"?...She said "no". I...

I am sitting on 500 shares of RING (gold miners stock ETF). I was waiting for gold to hit about $2,100.-$2,200. then do a covered call on them. I am still waiting...

Crude oil hits an all time high and CAR rises over 13% during the day today!! Is there even a relationship between the two at this time... I know of the old saying that the market looks 3-6 months out. It may mean that business and vacation travel has been pent up for years...And it will...

This has been bugging me...Trying to find the value of this stock. If anyone has an idea where this stock will land in June 22 or Jan 23 please let me know. Please no "I think it will be here"!! Tell me which direction it will be from here and why? Is this a AMC, GME, TSLA or something...

I like to set limits on my call options. With the above (once I bought it), I put the option price in at $5.30. In a few minutes I dropped it down to $5.20 and it got filled. I will usually drop down 5/10 cents every few minutes. So much of my profits are from the call money and not the...

I have a lot of cash (money market funds) earning diddly/squat...Had to put the money somewhere. Long term hold, if markets go south...

I bought 200 shares of SPDR Growth...Symbol SPYG. I should have been more patient...Bought it at $59.90, I could have/should have waited a few more minutes. But, I wanted to get the covered calls sold quickly. Sold the covered calls (2) for Sept 22 $60. I got $5.20 ($1,040.) for the...

Saving account...Wait till the Fed meets later this month. Then put it in a one year CD.

Your threads are a little hard to read. You have 60 minutes to edit your posts. You may want to read them back to yourself (while editing)...See if you can clean/clear them up. PS I had ADHD so I know a little of what you're going through...

I have family that grows wheat in Montana. It has been YEARS since they have made a good profit. This might be the time (if the rains come)...

You were probably looking at my posts. The thing you need to keep in mind is I am a value INVESTOR. I look for industry leaders (who have an edge; McDonalds, Microsoft, ADM). These are ones who have held market share for 10 plus years. Also there are no signs of them losing market share in...

Jdesey, I'm on the other side of you. I am the one selling you my options (covered calls). Yeah, you could hit a big one I sell (Apple)...But, you can (and do) lose a lot of the out of the money options that expire worthless. I chug along earning 10-20% many times and am happy with that...

I'm wondering if this will be the new norm for awhile. People are worried about interest rates rising quickly...Companies that don't make money could get squeezed. Was thinking of the movie "Moneyball"..."He gets on base". I own stock in Meritor (MTOR)...They are getting bought out by...

I've shared this before...Won't go into great detail. I'm 66 1/2...My wife really doesn't want to trade. If we can't trade (death, stroke, rest home), a bank's trust department will handle all our finances. DO YOU TRUST A BANK'S TRUST DEPARTMENT TO UNWIND ALL TRADES?? Are you sure? Method...

Once gold starts moving, people jump into buy. There becomes a scramble and those who feel left out (missed the boat) jump into silver quickly. That's what I think saw in the late 70's during inflation...

I wonder what the beta is gold to silver...Silver to gold??

I really enjoy this movie..."Clean and Sober". A great line using options.
