Rocky’s Weekly Stock Picks

How’s your summer going? Taking lots of vacation time?

Or are you like us, and you go job hopping, doing as little work as possible for the maximum possible return?

In any case, you probably aren’t super worried about your portfolio. Maybe you sold in May and walked away. Maybe you have automatically recurring investments.

Or maybe you just copy/paste our five picks each week and go all-in. Obviously the best option.

1. RUM - $7.97/share, weekly options. Rumble continues to expand on its own, as YouTube continues to push popular creators off its platform.
   
   Get this at a discount now, and write covered calls from now to eternity.
   
   

2. PINS - $27.96/share, weekly options. Pinterest shares broke $30/share and now are coming back down. This is a great time to start a wheel.
   
   A wheel involves cash-secured puts, turning into covered calls if/when you get assigned.
   
   

3. FTCH - $5.49/share, weekly options. We really like the $5-6 price range for Farfetch options.
   
   

4. GOGL - $7.18/share, monthly options, quarterly dividends. The price is coming down on this dry bulk shipping company’s shares, and at this point could continue or might reverse.
   
   In any case, that’s the nature of the beast and we’re happy to hold on to these shares until happier times. And if the price continues to fall, maybe we buy a few more; might as well.
   

5. JEQ - $5.92/share, quarterly dividends. This is the Aberdeen Japan Equity Fund.
   
   It’s diverse because it’s Asian.
   
   We don’t expect to see the share price recover to move up in any significant way anytime soon. What we do like is that this gives us some basic exposure to the Tokyo Stock Exchange, without all the hassle of having to learn stuff (or the expense of foreign transaction fees).
