The trade results and did it meet expectations?
WHY WHY WHY?!?! would you 1) do a Covered Call for Aug 2020 THEN buy back the option for basically what you sold it for? What's the point? ... here's the deal ... things have changed with me and this Southern Co trade ... I've noticed a couple things happening with this current sell off ... SO has FALLEN from $68 to $58, then rallied to $68 again ... now its back at $57/58 ... and with the collection of the dividend and basically buying back the CCW at cost ... I figure I will take this off the board and wait for the markets to return to value plays in the market ... which I feel will be the great utility stocks (like SO) ... I will then write another CC on it and we will see. Nothing more, nothing less.
