This week’s stock picks are basic AF. Keep it simple, keep it safe. Keep the income flowing.

1. CCJ - $48.41/share, weekly options. 0.18% annualized. The price on CCJ has only gone up, and it’s about to get a swift kick in the rear thanks to Congress banning imports of Russian uranium.
   
   At this point, under $50 is a discount!
   
   
   

2. USOI - $72.75/share, yield showing 19.66%. This is somewhat misleading, but not by much. This is a Credit Suisse commodity ETF. Which commodity, you ask? Oil, baby!
   
   But yeah for real, this has consistently delivered double-digit returns year over year. $$$
   
   
   

3. SLRC - $15.43/share, monthly options, annualized 10.61% yield. Yikes!
   
   This heavy-hitter is a BDC that consistently performs.
   
   
   

4. MAX - $22.20/share, monthly options, no dividends.
   
   We have no idea what this stock is. Literally, we just typed in “MAX” and haven’t even bothered to read the company profile.
   
   
   

5. PWR - $256.33/share, monthly options, 0.14% annualized yield.
   
   Again, we aren’t even bothering to read into this.
   
   Look, if “MAX PWR” doesn’t appeal to you; if you need more advice than what your hair dryer can offer, then maybe you should just stick to T-Bills.
