August 22nd, 2025 Weekly Options Expiration Results

The Covered Calls Advisor Portfolio had three Covered Calls positions with an August 22nd, 2025 options expiration date.  All three positions (ConocoPhillips, RTX Corporation, and Wheaton Precious Metals Corporation) were in-the-money at yesterday's market close, so their Calls expired and the shares were called away (i.e. sold) at their respective strike prices.  Each of these positions was established at moderately in-the-money strike prices.   

A summary of the results for each of these three positions are as follows:

1. ConocoPhillips (COP) -- +1.6% absolute return (equivalent to +65.9% annualized return-on-investment) for the 9 days of this investment.  This Covered Call position was assigned at the $93.00 strike price yesterday on its 8/22/2025 options expiration date since the stock closed in-the-money at $96.78 per share.  The original post detailing this Covered Calls position is here. 

2. RTX Corporation (RTX) -- +1.2% absolute return (equivalent to +26.2% annualized return-on-investment) for the 17 days of this investment.  This Covered Call position was assigned at the $152.50 strike price yesterday on its 8/22/2025 options expiration date since the stock closed in-the-money at $156.24 per share.
