Another not good VP solo trip. No decent hits at all. Stuck with 98.8 Bonus Deuces Wild but not even a 5 Aces or quad Deuces hit. Thats just the way it goes. Luckily, I’m doing ok in the market to offset the VP.

Hey Case or anyone….Any good dividend play ideas. I’m staying away from growth stocks for the moment. I did pick up a couple of Cases picks. So far so good

One super high dividend I have had good results with is SVOL
A crazy 17% dividend but it seems to hold its price well. Dividend is paid monthly.

Thanks Case. Even taking account for its decline so far this year counting the dividend, one would be ahead 13 percent. I’ll take it.

Great, can you explain it to me please?

What assets does it hold? And under what circumstances would its price decline?

Very hard to explain. Best to read it. I also just picked up some XYLD. Global S and P 500 Covered call ETF. You can type in about XYLD or any of the others and multiple sites will come up about these things. Still can’t get my arms around Bitcoin though I guess it will be less volatile now after options trading started last week or so. SVOL buys and sells put and call options, and futures contracts on VIX futures. ( volatility index )
