ROST Dividend-Like Income Using Covered Calls
With ROST at 140.38, 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% | 4.21 | 1.2 |
5% | 7.02 | 1.9 |
10% | 14.04 | 3.8 |
