Read the Article: Now Might Be a Good Time to Think About a Managed Option Strategy

It’s been smartly said that good investors take a snapshot in time and position their portfolios for what they think might change. For those capturing today’s moment, the image is more than a little hazy. Geopolitical concerns in the Middle East have pushed oil higher but prices are still down from their September peak. The worst bond rout in U.S. history has punished businesses in countless ways yet the S&P 500 is still up 9% for the year. Cash is king. A soft landing for the economy looks increasingly bumpy to many observers.

Options involve risk and are not suitable for everyone. Prior to buying or selling an option, your client must receive a copy of CHARACTERISTICS AND RISKS OF STANDARDIZED OPTIONS. Copies of this document may be obtained from your Investment Advisor, from any exchange on which options are traded, or by contacting The Options Clearing Corporation, One North Wacker Dr., Suite 500, Chicago, IL 60606 (1-800-678-4667).

Investments in derivatives may be risker than other types of investments. They may be more sensitive to changes in economic or market conditions than other types of investments. Many derivatives create leverage, which could lead to greater volatility and losses that significantly exceed the original investment. Positions in equity options can reduce equity market risk, but can limit the opportunity to profit from an increase in the market value of stocks in exchange for upfront cash as the time of selling the call option. Unusual market conditions or the lack of a ready market for any particular option at a specific time may reduce the effectiveness of option strategies and could result in losses.
