Q: Hey Peter and Co.
I am thinking about getting into covered call writing on some of my dividend stocks. I'm reading up on the strategy mostly from Alan Ellman's Complete Encyclopedia For Covered Call Writing.
I really don't want the stocks I have to get called so I'm thinking about just writing out of the money calls to add income to my portfolio. What is your opinion on OTM covered call writing and covered calls in general?

Q: Hi. Your input has been very helpful in gaining fullest understanding of individual holdings. This is not a question just a follow-up for added info. Your call on what you choose to do with this information. Thanks.
On the Aberdene webpage they show(un-audited) the Nav/Price Premium currently as 12.07%(as at Jan 14, 2013). Difficult for me to buy an 8% yield with 12% risk.

Q: Peter
I`ve noticed that HLF has been doing exceedingly well of late .Do you expect this to continue for the rest of the year . Is it as solid a company as it would appear ?
Also with the debt ceiling issue in the USA fast approaching should we likely hold off on taking on new positions until this passes .
Thanks
Bill
