DIS/Yodi - My brain doesn't work that way.  I would want to see something really good, like $110-120 and, otherwise, why do I need DIS when there are other stocks that ARE on sale?  As much as I like DIS overall, $141 is $260Bn and they are not "only" dropping $10Bn to the bottom line for 2020 and MAYBE $11Bn in 2021.  It's not the kind of stock that will get to $13Bn in less than 5 years so buying it for $260Bn now says that, for the next 5 years, I can't imagine a market event that re-values stocks to 20x earnings.  Nope, no thanks...

How about VIAC?  $37.22 is $23Bn and they should make around $3.3Bn this year and more next year. In fact, that's a good one for the LTP:

  • Sell 10 VIAC 2022 $32.50 puts for $4 ($4,000) 
  • Buy 30 VIAC 2022 $35 calls for $7 ($21,000)
  • Sell 30 VIAC 2022 $42.50 calls for $4 ($12,000) 

That's net $5,000 on the $22,500 spread so the upside potential is $17,500 at $42.50 and the risk is owning 1,000 shares of VIAC for net $37.50 (about where it is now).
