Hey Guys,
The market is down noticeably to start the day. The S&P 500 is around 5,860 right now. It's down more than 120 points since the start of the week.
Due to the unique circumstance of the market being closed yesterday, my AAPL option positions reached their time limits today and I manually closed them this morning. Both ended up noticeably in the red. It was nice that we had that win on GOOGL options earlier in the week to help offset these, but it was still a losing week overall in that options account.
The stocks account also had a losing week, but it fared better than the market overall and was relatively close to breakeven.
I'm fortunate that I didn't have more stock and option positions open during a red week in the market like that. Sometimes light trading activity can be a good thing and help us sidestep even bigger losses at exactly the right time.
I took on two new trades today. They were both in the stocks account. I bought positions for AVGO and DRI.
If you have any questions or feedback, I'd love to hear from you.
