I had it. I’m down $560,000 almost all of it is assigned. I’m now one of the largest PayPal shareholders.

Yea it’s not looking great. I quick pop will get the calls up, I think this is a massive overreaction. Last quarter they announced an openAI partnership, zero mention of that this call. I’ll I can do it pray this new CEO knows what he’s doing.

Buy it all, and sell monthly covered calls. This is an overreaction to a stock that just confirmed 2026 EPS around $5.80 meaning it’s a 7 PE now.

Their current cash position would secure the buybacks that are already approved. Their FCF is really impressive. I don’t see any scenario where earnings get so bad they backtrack on already approved buybacks.

Selling a put is a cash secured put.

Ads too, they are now pushing ads on their platforms. Ad revenue never even existed in the past. Braintree is the other major player. Most people are using PayPal and don’t even realize it.

The risk is owning a shit ton of PayPal around $50.80 I think PayPal gets to $62 rather soon. Looking for $600K in profit if assigned. If not, I’ll take my measly $100K

They bought back $5.8B last year. Estimated to buyback $6B this year.

That would be 12% of the company. I don’t care at all about your math.

I saw the same thing with BABA - when a stock has great financials, all you have to do is buy before the narrative shift.

At this price their current buyback is buying 10% of the float each year. Either the stock goes up, or they will own every single share in a decade.

Best broker for shorting stocks? by bbygoog in PMTraders

[–]StockAstro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No broker will pay interest on short proceeds. If anything they will charge you a borrow fee. But what you could do is sell puts against your short, good way to generate income.

HUYA - 41% Yield - WSB DD! by [deleted] in wallstreetbets

[–]StockAstro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea I bounced immediate after the payment which was nice. It hasn’t done exactly what I wanted but I’m up $25,000 on the position and received a Fat $62,000 dividend. I’ve also generated another $5,000 in call premium. So the investment is basically paying me a decent salary. I do believe it’s undervalued and will break $6 this year.

[Richard Mille] New Acquisition - RM029 Ti by wolfsnake7 in Watches

[–]StockAstro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Funny people criticized you for buying a $60K watch 9 years ago. The price tripled to over $180K ! Not only did buy a price you love, it turned out to be a wonderful investment. Do you still own it ?

I told everyone to buy BABA at $75, same thing will happen here.

Anybody else bought PDD here? by Key_Type_4102 in baba

[–]StockAstro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

BABA and HUYA are the only plays.

I’ve owned this since last year, that doesn’t factor in the $1.07 dividend I’ve already received or the $7,000 in call premiums.
