February 27th, 2026 Options Expiration Results

The Covered Calls Advisor Portfolio had three Covered Calls positions with February 27th, 2026 options expiration dates.  Two positions (Amazon.com Inc. and RTX Corporation), closed in-the-money so their Calls expired and the shares were called away (i.e. sold) at their respective strike prices.  One position in Capital One Financial Corporation closed out-of-the-money so its Call option expired and the shares remain in the Covered Calls Advisor Portfolio.  A summary of results for each of these positions (in alphabetical order) is as follows:

1. Amazon.com Inc. (AMZN) -- +1.9% absolute return (equivalent to +49.6% annualized return-on-investment) for the 14 days of this investment.  This Covered Call position was assigned at the $192.50 strike price since the stock closed in-the-money at $210.00 per share.  The original blog post detailing this Covered Call position is here. 

2. Capital One Financial Corporation (COF) -- This Covered Call position closed yesterday at $195.64 which was well below its $210.00 strike price, so the one Call option expired and 100 Capital One shares now remain in the Covered Calls Advisor Portfolio.  The original blog post detailing this position is here.  Early in this upcoming week I will decide to either continue this Covered Call position by selling a Call option against the 100 Capital One shares currently held or close out the position by selling these shares. 

3. RTX Corporation (RTX) -- +2.1% absolute return (equivalent to +42.7% annualized return-on-investment) for the 18 days of this investment.  This Covered Call position was assigned at the $195.00 strike price since the stock closed in-the-money at $202.62 per share.  The most recent blog post detailing this Covered Call position is here.
