Last week, in my 48-Hour Income service, we sold a cash-secured put on quantum computing company IonQ (IONQ). In 48-Hour Income, the goal of the service is to generate 1% to 3% returns per week by selling 2-day puts in certain stocks. IONQ put premiums were elevated at the time due to upcoming earnings.

An Undervalued Play on LNG’s Bright Future
I have been a fan of one particular LNG company for several years. It is on a tremendous growth trajectory. Unfortunately, the market has not shared my enthusiasm, and the stock price has been range-bound for over three years. A recent announcement shows how this company’s business operations and infrastructure development have put it in […]
Follow the Numbers to These Small Caps and Fixed Income Stocks
Today, I want to follow up on yesterday’s suggestion to follow the numbers. The numbers are clearly telling us that we need to be involved in small-cap stocks and fixed income. The numbers (and common sense) also tell us that tech stocks and the indexes cannot keep going at the current pace forever. Follow the […]
Your Only Defense Against the Investing Lies You’ve Been Told
I am a huge fan of philosophy. I think it should be taught at the high school level, not to push one belief set over another, but to teach the art of thinking. Don’t get me wrong. I am not a learned scholar who writes deep, complicated papers on the topic and can lecture at […]
What “Fund Expenses” Really Mean for Your Returns
I get a lot of questions about fund expenses.

So let me explain – because they can matter much less than people think… The discussion […]
Trade of the Week: WW

Hot Stock Picks from My MoneyShow Panel
Last month, I was a speaker at the MoneyShow investor conference in Las Vegas. I enjoy presenting there very much.

I discussed the rapidly expanding universe […]
What the Best Tech Investors are Buying Right Now
Last week, I told you I would circle back and share the latest buying and selling activities of some of the best energy and technology investors. I covered SIR Capital, one of the best energy investors in recent years, but followed that with Donals Smith and Company, a deep-value firm with very little technology exposure. […]
Making Money With Higher-for-Longer Interest Rates
Stock traders and capital gains-focused investors have their fingers crossed and capital bets on the Federal Reserve starting to cut interest rates soon. Based on recent inflation and employment data, I think it’s very possible that the Fed will not be that quick to cut rates. I am in the higher-for-longer camp and believe investing […]
Trade of the Week: ABR and BE
Last week, in my 48-Hour Income service, we sold cash-secured puts on real estate finance company Arbor Realty Trust (ABR) and renewable energy company Bloom Energy (BE). In 48-Hour Income, the goal of the service is to generate 1% to 3% returns per week by selling 2-day puts in certain stocks. Both ABR and BE […]
