  • Trading Idea Update: Magna International, Inc. (MGA)
    by Thomas Moore
    Following a pretty consistent theme throughout most of this summer, the market has been “baking in” an expectation of lower interest rates. That expectation has increased last week after Fed chair Jerome Powell signaled that rates cuts are coming. While he didn’t provide any detail on when rates will happen, or how big they’ll be, the market… Read More »Trading Idea Update: Magna International, Inc. (MGA)

  • Managing Downside Risk with Protective Puts
    by Thomas Moore
    I’ve posted about this subject a few times, because one of the questions I get asked more when market uncertainty increases is how I manage downside risk in stocks I acquire from put sale assignments. If you’ve participated in my Friday webinar, you probably already know that I’m not afraid of long, downward trends, even in stocks… Read More »Managing Downside Risk with Protective Puts
  • Trade Idea Update: Bank of America Corp. (BAC)
    by Thomas Moore
    Don’t ignore the end of today’s post. GOLD is a stock I’ve held for the past two years, and that is in a good position now to set up a useful covered call trade. I’ve outline that setup at the end of today’s post. When uncertainty is high in an industry, and you’re a bit of a… Read More »Trade Idea Update: Bank of America Corp. (BAC)

  • Trade Idea Alert: FMC Corp. (FMC)
    by Thomas Moore
    I’m stepping out of my normal method for this week’s trade. I prefer to sell options with 30 days or less to expiration in order to leverage the compounding effect, and maximize the benefit of time decay as much as possible. This week’s income trade is a little longer than 30 days, and I’m okay with that… Read More »Trade Idea Alert: FMC Corp. (FMC)

  • Trade Idea Alert: Comcast Corp (CMSCA)
    by Thomas Moore
    Comcast Corp (CMCSA) is a stock that I’ve been following for the past year or so with interest, and used for a couple of productive income-generating trades. They’re like Disney (DIS), Netflix (NFLX) and others that all have a foothold in the streaming video business, but along with DIS and, perhaps Paramount Global (PARA), they really stand… Read More »Trade Idea Alert: Comcast Corp (CMSCA)

  • Income Investing in a Volatile Market
    by Thomas Moore
    Market volatility – what is it, really? The answer, I think is different for each of us. Some people hear the word “volatility” and they start to shudder because to them, the word is synonymous with risk. Others might start to salivate, because for their investing approach volatility provides a big, fat opportunity. I tend to associate… Read More »Income Investing in a Volatile Market
  • Trade Idea Update: Nike, Inc. (NKE)
    by Thomas Moore
    The market is starting to bet big on multiple interest rate cuts through the rest of the year. That’s prompted some experts to call for an extension of the bull market that started in 2023. The contrarian in me hesitates to jump on that particular bandwagon. I see enough indications that economic growth hasn’t moderated as much… Read More »Trade Idea Update: Nike, Inc. (NKE)

  • Stop Losses and Value-oriented Income Generation
    by Thomas Moore
    Occasionally I get emails from subscribers about my approach to stop losses on the stocks I hold in my portfolio. If you’ve followed this blog for a while, I expect that you’ve noticed I never write about stop losses on stocks I am assigned from my put selling trades. This isn’t a simple case of omission, but… Read More »Stop Losses and Value-oriented Income Generation
  • Trade Idea Update: The Kraft Heinz Co. (KHC)
    by Thomas Moore
    If you’ve been following my trades for more than a few months, you already know that one of the market segments I’ve come to rely on, both for defensive positioning as well as useful income-generating opportunities is the Food Products industry. Food stocks aren’t very sexy, and they don’t get a lot of attention in market media,… Read More »Trade Idea Update: The Kraft Heinz Co. (KHC)

  • Accelerating Income Generation with Covered Calls
    by Thomas Moore
    Don’t ignore the end of today’s post. CVS and CAG have picked up bullish momentum in the last few days and are both above the prices I was assigned at. That means it’s a good time to generate additional income with covered call trades on those stocks – which is appropriate given the subject I’m posting about… Read More »Accelerating Income Generation with Covered Calls
  • Trade Idea Alert: Coterra Energy Inc. (CTRA)
    by Thomas Moore
    Dividends are a big part of the Rebel Income investing system, but not just because they provide a useful passive income source. Dividends are a good, relatively easy way to filter the market for stocks with superior fundamentals than what most investors pay attention to. Over time, they’ve also become more than just a starting point for… Read More »Trade Idea Alert: Coterra Energy Inc. (CTRA)

  • Why Trade Frequency Matters
    by Thomas Moore
    Don’t ignore the end of today’s post. I was assigned shares of USB at the end of May and have been watching the stock mostly hover below that level since. The stock is rebounding strongly this week, and that’s setting up a nice opportunity to generate additional income with covered calls.
