[The Option Specialist]( 10/18/2021 | [View in browser]( --------------------------------------------------------------- [How To Avoid Choppiness In JP Morgan Shares During Earnings Season]( ...Wall Street believes most of the good news might already be priced into the share price. Therefore, investors who are nervous about increased volatility and a potential decline in JPM stock might consider a "poor person's covered call" on the stock. So, today we introduce a diagonal debit spread on JPM using LEAPS options, where both the profit potential and risk are limited. Such a strategy could be used to replicate a covered call position at a considerably lower cost, and also help decrease the portfolio volatility. A trader first buys a "longer-term" call with a lower strike price. At the same time, the trader sells a "shorter-term" call with a higher strike price, creating a long diagonal spread. The call options for the underlying stock have different strikes and different expiration dates. The trader goes long one option and shorts the other to make a diagonal spread.

Most analysts expect a bipartisan infrastructure package to pass- highly modified, which will repair and replace the nation's water facilities and upgrade transportation systems, and improve broadband, making it more accessible.

The conglomerate he runs, Berkshire Hathaway (NYSE:BRK.A) (NYSE:BRK.B), holds a stock portfolio worth over $300 billion, as well as an array of wholly owned subsidiaries across the energy, railroad, retail, and insurance industries, among others. One attribute that Buffett famously looks for in those investments is a strong economic moat -- a clear competitive advantage that would be difficult for a rival to replicate.
