what are you selling today?

[Castanza]

Closed a third my CLF call options for 68% gain

[Red Lion]

Sold covered calls on ATVI which was recently assigned on margin for a short PUT I wrote the day of the takeover offer news. I picked the  1/20/23 expiration, $90 strike price for $2.29. 

[competitive-advantage]

Meta

I still like the company, but I want to see some progress with the metaverse story before I buy again.

Alphabet

I bought before earnings and sold again after. Great company.

Sold BRK.B at 320 in a 401k account to buy shares in KKR at 63.20. I would anticipate buying these BRK.B shares back in an opportunistic fashion. 

[Red Lion]

Sold my ATVI and bought back my covered calls for a 2% loss to go off margin. Sold Jan 23 $60 KKR puts for $6.70 and reinvested the options proceeds into more KKR at just under $63.

I'm not selling anything, but Oracle seems to be buying SPLK anyway.

That offer is a takeunder.

Kind of agree. I've owned CSCO for a good bit of time.  Looks like they are full on to the shift to services and software...Maybe they think that there will be less money spent on corp networking

with more stay home workers? They've expanded into high margin areas like security and 5G so it

might not be a bad fit with SPLK.

Sold 15 2024 SHLX puts on Friday. The floor here is $12.89 and puts are trading at 3.5. I think it will take way less time than 2 years to get this closed out with Shell's 72% ownership. There is also a potential that the bid will be increased - say if it goes the way TOO/Brookfield saga played out (28% increase in a bid). I not too optimistic on the latter scenario and see this just closing out similar to Enbridge roll up.

 

Thanks @thepupil for flagging this one.

Sold $100K of BRK this morning at $316 to fund half my expenses this year.

 

We'll see if I should have waited until after they report.

Haha. I'm a blasphemous son of a bitch, I know! I did keep most of my Berkshire Hathaway shares, and sold inside a tax deferred account. Famous last words.

But really doesn't mean anything by itself.

 

Don't know what the withdrawal rate is, how long needs to last, or if wish to leave anything behind.

 

And if the withdrawal is paying for mortgage/car payments or all discretionary.

 

Or if Roth converting, etc.

Why do you feel like selling? It is still pretty undervalued compared to most of the market, and pays a nice dividend, especially if you bought in the 35 range.
