I entered a new position today: Fifth Third Bancorp $34 puts expiring February 16 2024 (a lusty 210 days remaining). This is costing me virtually zero premium, and it’s a gorgeous-looking top.

My best-performing position is my META January $350 puts, which are up 26.3% and have 182 days left to fall. They report earnings after the close on Wednesday. Mark, I’m banking on you!
