SMH Iron Condor – CLOSED for 21% ROI

JerryFebruary 26, 2022March 6, 2022

CLOSED – On Friday 2/25/22, the SMH Iron Condor trade hit 21 days until expiration (DTE) so I closed it, slightly below my profit target, as I opted for following the mechanics over attempting to squeeze out a few extra pennies.

Seasonality in September, is usually bad. We have SPY down 5%. October and November are usually better, so there may yet be some hope for an end of year rally. Bonds continue to suffer due to rising rates. The 10 year is highest rate in 16 years. Gold is down over 3% for the month, but that’s is not stopping people from buying Costco gold bars at a record pace! A government shutdown deadline looms: The Biden administration estimates that an estimated 2 million U.S. service members and more than 1.5 million federal civilian employees will go without a paycheck during a government shutdown. This includes our Money Viking co-founder, Greg. That is why we are working to maintain our emergency funds, and keep a well-diversified portfolio. Greg is not making any drastic investment changes as a result of this. All sectors were down this month except for Energy, up .55%. Fear and Greed Index was 28. This week we declined from 34 to 28, a slight move towards fear. The VIX remains above 17. The Put Call Ratio is at 1.08 and rising, so that represents an increase in fear. When volatility is increasing and more people are buying puts than calls, it indicates a higher level of fear in the market. The Fear and Greed Indicator is a tool used to gauge the overall market sentiment based on several indicators. It provides valuable insights into investor behavior by analyzing factors such as volatility and options trading. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/moneyvikings/support
