Mail Block: Listener questions and comments
- Question from Dmitry: What happens to Leaps for tickers that get delisted before expiration?
- Question from Mark Davis: Hello, I am a new listener. There was a mention of using covered calls to generate a "dividend". I am having trouble tracking down more information on this. Being still new to all of this, I am hoping to get a clearer picture of how it works. How far out on expiration should I look at to figure the stock price? Thanks!
