During the rock-and-roll week we
just had, I took advantage of the down days to do some add-ons and roll-outs on GM
and T. While the shares were low, I
added 100 shares to each of these positions while also rolling them out a month
or two.
Here are the current position plans
for GM and T after the roll-outs, net of fees and commissions, and assuming I
collect dividends through the holding period:
GM
With all the company has been
through in the last few years, GM is currently rated five stars by
S&P. I established a 300-share
position in November 2014, and added 100 shares this week to make a 300-share
position out of it. The basis is now $12,397.99,
or $30.99 per share. The current covered
call is $32 Mar 2015; I started with a $32 strike and have been rolling the
contract out every other month or so.
Total covered call premiums: $520.95
Total dividend payments (includes March
ex-date): $210.00
Total stock gain at $32: $384.01
Total, absolute gain on the
position: $1,114.96
Total, absolute return percentage ($1,114.96/$12,397.99):
11.98%
Annualized total return percentage
(approx 142 days if held to expiration): 30.97%
T
As with GM, this position was
established with a 300-share lot back in August, and I added 100 shares last
week. Now it is a 400-share position with
a basis of $13,621.96, or $34.05 per share.
I have been selling covered calls at the $35 strike, rolling them just
about monthly since I started.

ex-date): $336.00
Total stock gain at $35: $360.04
