The Covered Calls Advisor Portfolio (CCAP) contained a total of eleven covered calls positions with December 2010 expirations, with the following results:
- Decisions were made earlier this month to roll out five covered calls positions (iShares MSCI South Korea ETF, Microsoft, International Paper, Bank of America, and iShares MSCI China ETF) into Jan2011 positions. Separate posts were made on this blog earlier this month for each of these transactions on the day they occurred.
Of the remaining six positions that were held until Dec2010 expiration this past Friday:
- Two positions (Intel Corp. and Oshkosh Corp.) finished in-the-money. The calls were exercised and the shares were called away. The annualized return-on-investment results achieved on these assigned positions were as follows:
1. Intel Corp. -- +42.7%
2. Oshkosh Corp. -- +56.5%
Detailed results for these two covered calls positions that were assigned (called away) upon Dec2010 expiration are described below.
- The remaining four positions in the CCAP (Domtar Corp., iShares MSCI Emerging Markets ETF, Petrobras, and Research in Motion) ended out-of-the-money. Decisions will be made to either sell the equities, or to keep them and sell calls to establish Jan2011 covered call positions. The related transactions will be made this week and the actual transactions will be posted on this blog site on the same day they occur.
