Rolling our YETI puts to a lower strike price.
Shares of YETI have pulled back with the overall market weakness. The good news is that our income strategy gives us some buffer for when stocks pull back.
Today, we’re going to use our parachute protection plan to buy back our original YETI put contracts at a higher price. This helps to reduce our risk and protect your investment capital.
At the same time, we’re going to be rolling out a new put play on YETI using a lower strike price. This creates more of a buffer helping to protect your wealth while giving us more income from this stock.
We’re buying back our original YETI put contracts at a loss. But if our second put position expires, we’ll still be able to walk away from this trade with a profit despite the pullback for shares of YETI. And once these put contracts expire, we can also look for opportunities to collect more income from selling new YETI put contracts.
