February 10th, 2023 Options Expiration Results

There was one Covered Calls position in the Covered Calls Advisor Portfolio with a February 10th, 2023 weekly options expiration date.  This position in D.R. Horton Company (ticker DHI) was closed out yesterday since its stock price of $98.59 at the market close yesterday was in-the-money, so the two $93.00 Call options expired worthless and the 200 shares owned were assigned (i.e. sold) at their $93.00 strike price. As detailed below, the result achieved was a +1.1% absolute return-on-investment (equivalent to a +38.4% annualized return-on-investment) for the 10 days holding period).
