This is what Nic Chahine averages with his option 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.

  • According to the report, The Writers Guild of America West advised investors to vote against the compensation offered to Netflix's top executives, stating that such a vote would be "inappropriate" during the strike, which is now in its fifth week.
  • "While investors have long taken issue with Netflix's executive pay, the compensation structure is more egregious against the backdrop of the strike," stated Writers Guild West President Meredith Stiehm.
  • Stiehm stated that if Netflix had the resources to spend more than $166 million on executive compensation last year for its top executives, it could afford to pay $68 million a year to writers seeking better compensation.
  • The Writers Guild of America West wrote a similar letter to Comcast Corporation (NASDAQ:CMCSA), the parent company of NBCUniversal, which hosts its annual shareholder meeting on June 7, mentioned Reuters.
