OIH/EMike - We have them in the Butterfly Portfolio, I like how they are pretty predictable in their channel. Now bottoming so I like them long:
As a new trade, I'd go with:
- Sell 5 OIH 2020 $23 puts for $2.10 ($1,050)
- Buy 10 OIH 2020 $22 calls for $4.25 ($4,250)
- Sell 10 OIH 2020 $27 calls for $2 ($2,000)
That's net $1,200 on the $5,000 spread and, when they move up in the channel again, you can sell 3 Oct $26 calls for $1 (the price of the $24s, so a $2 move up) which are now 0.27. That's $300 and if you pick that up every other month for 16 months, that's $2,400 while you wait - nothing to sneeze at! Just the straight trade has an upside potential of $3,800 (316%) but I'd sell the calls for another 200% upside potential.
Let's add that to the OOP as it's a good thing to work on!
DLTR/Soma - Oddly unloved considering they have good top and bottom-line growth. 56,000 employees is a problem as they are generally minimum wage so say they have to pay them $5 more per hour x 56,000 x 40 x 52 = $116.5M or 10% of the profits - that's the fear but so what?

Profitability |
At $19Bn, the company isn't overly cheap but it's a nice, steady stock and should do well in a downturn.
