That's why they call it naked short selling. I do the same thing the banks did. I buy a stock that meets my requirements, and sell covered calls. Only difference is, I have to hold the underlying shares as long as the contract is open. This is where it gets the name 'covered call' In a way, it reminds me of Social Security. Politicians tell people there's 2.7 trillion in the trust fund. That much is true, what they don't tell you is that it's nothing more than IOU notes from the US treasury. What this means is that every month the inflows are less than the outflows, (which has been happening since 2010) the government has to issue new debt to cover. People are so focking gullible 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
