27% profits every 20 days?
This is what Nic Chahine averages with his options buys. Not selling covered calls or spreads... BUYING options. Most traders don't even have a winning percentage of 27% buying options. He has an 83% win rate. Here's how he does it.
- Colgate-Palmolive Co (NYSE:CL) reported first-quarter FY22 sales growth of 1.5% to $4.399 billion, marginally missing the consensus of $4.4 billion.
- Organic sales increased by 4%. Total Oral, Personal, and Home Care net sales decreased 0.9% to $3.5 billion.

- The company held $877 million in cash and equivalents as of March 31, 2022. Net cash provided by operations was $386 million for the quarter.
- "While our growth continued on the top line, our profitability was impacted by significant increases in raw material and logistics costs worldwide, and we expect the difficult cost environment to continue for the next several quarters," said Chairman, President, and CEO Noel Wallace.
