They report earnings very soon. These puts straddle the earnings release. Got paid $593 on these. Equates to a 6.6% cash earn rate in just under 6 weeks. I'll take it. If they drop 9%, I get the shares. I want them.
This is what I was talking about when I said I saw no great upside in profits for oil majors if the supply goes even higher because we're taking over Venezuela. I had figured the NWO would be leveling refineries all over to get prices up.
I'd personally have rather stayed out of Venezuela, but now that it's been done...
I'd much rather have gas prices lower at the pump than worry about corporate profits for the drillers.
I did see it floated out there that Trump may try to grab onto 10% of the industry in Venezeula the way he did with Intel.
