Consumer discretionary isn’t looking great right now, unless we’re trying to buy into Bed, Bath, and Beyond on the cheap!

1. BBBY - $7.00/share, options trade weekly. We’re on board.
   

2. FATBP - $17.43 a share, ex-div in 2 weeks. Dividends are $0.17 per share per month. Nice!
   This company operates some 2200 restaurant units across 17 brands. Despite being in a risky and volatile industry, they seem pretty solid.

   Holding preferred shares gives us an extra layer of protection against a worst-case scenario.
   Coupon price is $25, Call Price is $27. WOW! Callable at any time, these shares are otherwise cumulative and perpetual.
   

   It looks like Robinhood allows trading of this security. We aren’t sure if this is a one-off, if Robinhood is trading preferred shares now, or if we just saw fake news. YMMV.
   

3. ORC - $2.91/share, $0.045 monthly dividend. We expect this to drop to $0.035 next quarter. The actual return is supposed to be around 10%,. Ex-div 6/29
   

4. CHMI - at $6.82 a share, now’s a great time to get into Cherry Hill Mortgage. Ex-div is 6/29. A 15.84% annualized return is paid quarterly. History shows a recent special dividend as well, which is always nice.
   

5. RDBX - $9.75/share, weekly options. This has been pretty volatile lately, but we’re going to proceed with caution. We feel that maintaining a $6 average price is far more likely than $10.
   

   The news feed reports that Reddit users were doing a short squeeze on multiple securities, including Redbox, which would explain it’s current price.
