very similar to owning the stock. Since such a call costs less to purchase than the stock
|
||||
itself would, the buyer is getting essentially the same profit or loss potential with a
|
||||
smaller investment. It is natural, then, to think that one might write another call -
|
||||
one closer to the money- against the deeply in-the-money purchased call. This posi
|
||||
tion would have profit characteristics much like a covered write, since the long call
|
||||
"simulates" the purchase of stock This position really is, of course, a bull spread, in
|
||||
which the purchased call is well in-the-money and the written call is closer to the
|
||||
money. Clearly, one would not want to put all of his money into such a strategy and
|
||||
forsake covered writing, since, with bull spreads, he could be entirely wiped out in a
|
||||
moderate market decline. In a covered writing strategy, one still owns the stocks even
|
||||
after a severe market decline. However, one may achieve something of a compromise
|
||||
by investing a much smaller amount of money in bull spreads than he might have
|
||||
invested in covered writes. He can still retain the same profit potential. The balance
|
||||
of the investor's funds could then be placed in interest-bearing securities.
