Capturing oil upside on volatility and backwardation
What do you do with stocks you bought in 2022 that never recovered and are worthless?

Not Pennies but buying $USOI & $SLVO was such a mistake 🤣 gonna hold out to see what happens. As much as I’d like to buy the dip I can’t justify it & will be reinvesting the dividends elsewhere.
Not a penny stock but I feel like they’re just suppressing $USOI to announce a stupid high dividend again. These covered calls do well with volatility &, well, oil has definitely been volatile 🧐 its trading at a discount to NAV recently. Not adding because it already has weight in my portfolio, just holding. I think the worst may be behind it.
Damn $USOI is dipping overnight too 🤣🥲 I’m about to ditch it & $SLVO; a little lower yield but less stressful
Check out $USOI; they run a covered call strategy on it so you get the exposure to the volatility (& a solid dividend) without the worry. I have 243 shares, haven’t once doubted my entry, position, etc. I probably won’t add more though FWIW, but I can use the income to build out other things & live my life.
& $USOI & silver $SLVO. They’re not penny stocks but they’re paying dividends on the volatility through covered calls.
Thanks for following up, even if you’re one of the ones who downvoted me 🤣 I know it seems that way, I’ve just done a lot of DD on it & really like what I see for a penny stock. Fun fact: Berkshire just bought a housing stock, the first purchase since Warren Buffett stepped down (I believe). I just really like the company/idea. I want the stock to reflect the underlying subsidiaries, Instone & CSI. The holding company may have some things to work out but they’re making serious strides. What you said is so true, for trades, which $CAPS is until it isn’t. I missed so many swings on the way down because someone on ST had convinced me not to swing it (imagine; I’ve been getting my head right recently). Everyone else is trading it & every other ticker. It’s the way to do it. For investments, I think you can/could/should be somewhat emphatically invested as well. I currently hold IWMI, JEPQ, UTF, USOI, SLVO, PFFA, & IDVO, & I like them (besides SLVO; still on the fence after today’s drop) so much that I don’t really care about the price. A lower price just means I can buy more.
Yeah my $USOI is looking good today too 🤙
$USOI & $MLPI, infrastructure, oil-associated dividend payers, are absolutely carrying my portfolio right now. I’m up over 9% on $USOI alone, holding long. Tomorrow is the ex-dividend date so $USOI should dip; it could be a good chance to start averaging in. I hope to load in more. Make your capital work for you!
$USOI has been an absolutely stellar trade so far; I’m up 9.2% & at this rate, the drop from the ($2.85/share) dividend payment won’t even put me in the red. I’ll just load in more. For more of a penny vibe check out $IWMI; they run a covered call strategy on the Russel 2000. It’s a way to get small cap exposure & let them pay you to hold it (& it’s dipping right now). Also holding JEPQ, MLPI, & UTF FWIW. Make your capital work for you & never *”work”* another day in your life.. 🤙 Live to trade another day!
I see the writing on the wall, that I should stop pushing my luck after doubling down on a losing $TE position & breaking even. Total gains: $1,332, net gains: $424... Gotta work on not losing the money just to make it back. I *can* make it back but I'd rather it all go to the bottom line... In $GMEX for 1K shares. 858K shares OS, Morgan Stanley holds a position, cost to borrow is 80.55%. Robotics is hot & they could be on the verge of a breakthrough, post-RS. ***This sub could literally lock up the float...*** I'll consider averaging down every $.10 or so, or getting in for a larger chunk if/when it starts to move, just don't want to miss the move if it's overnight... Holding $IWMI, $JEPQ, $MLPI, $USOI, & $UTF as a core, FWIW. Make your capital work for you, & never sell it!
Not a penny stock but $USOI is an oil-associated pick that pays a solid dividend & is rocking & rolling today...
$MVO low share-count dividend-paying oil-associated stock, if you don't roll with $USOI; i just bought a small batch of that to complement $USOI... Now I'm all out of cash...
Crazy day to pick to call $CAPS out when it’s up 7.63% with only 500 shares sold. I did sell 🤫 but I’m still interested in the story. The whole point of investing/trading is not buying at a premium, buying at a discount. That’s what the penny stocks sub is all about. I’ve been strictly buying UTF, USOI, & others only when discounted. Either way, I hope you make crazy gains!

UTF, MLPI, USOI, with some IWMI & JEPQ to milk the big tech exposure but it’s capped in my portfolio so as not to gal it when these IPOs take a dip…
$USOI keeps getting better & better...
Not penny stocks but I’m big into $USOI, $MLPI, & $UTF, some of my only holdings as my portfolio got obliterated last week. Infrastructure for the win 🤙
Careful you’ll get downvoted. Oh wait, that’s just me! $USOI & chill 🤙
Loaded up on the $USOI dip to the $53s today; if I’m paying higher gas prices I want income coming in from the oil market. NFA DYODD
Damn real glad I bought that $USOI dip; $2.85 dividend, here I come 🤙
$USOI for the win, fat $2.85 dividend. I loaded up today in the $53s
Nice to see you’re tracking $USOI 🤙
Any other oil plays aside from ANNA, BATL, USOI and TPET?
$USOI is a solid (high-risk), dividend-paying ride. Oil penny stocks are a no IMO. The big players already have the game scouted.
Don’t sleep on $USOI. The dividends are *insane*
For real y'all, if you want to hedge yourself in this oil situation, look into $USOI; the dividend is insane & it's only going up based on demand/the situation...
Update: really glad I didn't pull the trigger on $AIXI one last tie @ $1.13. I put most of my profits from this morning into $USOI; with the way oil prices are, this isn't going to stop paying stupidly fat dividends. The last one was over $7...
I’m up on my $USOI buy I made at the end of the day yesterday. The $7 monthly dividend is solid too…
those who bought USOI just before the ex-date got 12%+ in a single dividend distribution yesterday. and USOI is now nearly back up to their entry price level.
Not a penny stock at all but $USOI is interesting...
when ceasefire ends, I'm guessing there will be additional fireworks as Iran responds to US ship seizures. so I guess USOI wasn't a bad bet. then again, it is TACO Tuesday
> Is it not possible that the $7.47 dividend came purely from options trading activity? Unlikely, options trading on USOI is pretty light in general compared to heavy hitter securities, even now during a busy time it's 100k per day. We'd have to see what next month's ex-dividend is.
Also, the USOI ETN documentation states: "The monthly coupon amounts (if any) are variable and dependent on the premium generated by the notional sale of options on the Reference Oil Shares. You will not receive any fixed periodic interest payments on the ETNs. Any coupon amount is uncertain and could be zero." So, are they even returning principal at all? How can we find that out? In the period from February to March oil prices and USO had a lot of up/down activity. Is it not possible that the $7.47 dividend came purely from options trading activity? IDK. I could easily be missing something. What do you think?
if he holds USOI in a tax deferred account, the $7.47 dividend which will be paid this month will not cause an immediate tax liability. ex-div, USOI will need to drop from its current 59 to about 51.50 for this gamble to lose money. but, if for some reason (e.g. a surge in oil prices next week? or next month?) USOI might stay near $59 - or even go up? who knows? GLTA.
I can't stop thinking about USOI and the upcoming dividend. and yet I know this will end badly.
oil down today. USOI currently about $58 / share. USOI will pay out $7.47 on April 27. (ex date is April 22.) that's over 12% in a single month's payment.
I'm doing USOI, which is pretty flaccid, but giant dividend. Free money really
for those into the buy write structured products GLDI: Gold plus covered call overwriting USOI: Oil plus covered call overwriting
Its actually better to take an "opportunity loss" and take a week off enjoy life clear your head so you can sleep then research and plan your next trades. You can't control your emotions if you are stressed. Emotions make for bad trades. size your positions smaller if you feel too much pressure about losses. Learn to read options tables they will tell you the expected move / volatility of a stock. stable ? JNJ Exxon IBM pick a low spot. put your money in enable dividend re-investment and enjoy your life check them each year. Fast Money is both earned and lost. Slightly more risky but you could do TLTW, USOI, and PFFA basically bonds oil and preferred stocks. USOI NAV has taken a beating but that's because oil has been. that won't stay that way forever ... TLTW roughly 16% Dividend not much NAV volatility USOI has been sinking with the Price of OIL but might be a good time to get in about 17% dividend PFFA stable and a 8 percent dividend. 10 years from now with no stress you will be happy. Wait for the next big 10 or 20 percent market crash and buy SPY or VOO or QQQ set and forget.
"SPCE" Don't buy names just because they are part of a theme and/or have some sort of notable figure. Branson dumped a business on the public that was never going to sustain itself. He and Chamath sold a shit ton in the 30's. " BB" Meme stocks *at most* are trades. Related: the Blackberry movie was actually pretty decent. "USOI" Don't buy ETNs/commodity-specific ETFs. "ICLN" Everyone piled in in the couple of months before Biden took office thinking that green was free money and turned it into a mini bubble. The top was a week or so before the inauguration. Then higher rates and other issues resulted in it cratering further. IMO: ICLN has had a good year and I'd consider keeping that as a supporting player but not a huge position. The others I'd absolutely dump.
[Benn Eifert | Are We Entering a New Volatility Era? | U Got Options - From the Cboe Floor](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rzs0-Fjbkcc) [VIX Term Structure](http://vixcentral.com/) Structured products what tripled? Suppressing volatility - even I bought USOI and GLDI to profit off commodities or gold but others are buying single stock ETNs.
CEFS, USOI, SLVO, GLDI great income generators. Buy them at the right price, can't beat the yield.
I've held USOI over the last few years. Getting something every month to just hold has been nice.
I’ve been in USOI a few years. Now might actually be a good time to buy with the low price
I knew I shoulda dumped my USOI. But a 20% dividend yield was so tempting
Well.. USOI id be willing to bet a few K on. Its risky. An etn thats been stable for years with dividend yield 25% or so
Get on Stocktwits. Look up USOI, SMHB, KLIP, ARR. A lot of the things in there are just dumb, but I’ve gone down Rabbit holes with them and found gems. Like the ones above.
SMHB pays monthly. Anywhere from .05$ to .28¢ it’s $6.50 KLIP is a $17.70 that pays monthly. Up to a dollar a share USOI also pays monthly as does ARR
USOI is already 3x so 9x the fun
I always like Oil new. Hold a small stake in USOI their dividend is grotesque.
I use reddit. What I do is roll up a burner account and post like "Not bragging but this is my portfolio" and list garbage tier nonsense and let all the stock haters here come frothing at the mouth ripping it apart. "I'm making a killing with credit suisse! look at my dividends from REML, USOI, SLVO and GLDI!" and then we wait.
Or ETF's.. or ETN's (like USOI yikes!)
I didn't know you had a tent. It's up to you buddy, but if you want to keep those $700 don't gamble with options. If you want something a bit conservative but still risky and can generate you about $23 a month on your $700 ... That is about %40 return, check out the etn USOI. $23 can get you Wendy's few times a month :)
Buy USOI Have Warren Buffett dividends. Pay you 40k a year for the next decade easy.
Still holding USOI; still working remotely. Suck it OPEC!
In regards to stocks that pay out a dividend, I was wondering what stocks I should be looking at? I’m still fairly new at investing at the age of 28 almost 29. I make $50k a year with my current employer and I want to make my disposable income work for me fairly passively. I have a supplemental income with the national guard which is laughable at best. I’m curious as to what recommendations y’all might have. I’m supposed to be receiving a $20k bonus soon because I reenlisted, I’m estimating that I’ll get maybe $15k and I’m hoping to increase my monthly dividends I’m currently holding onto USOI stocks but I’m $300ish in the red right now.
Honestly I am new "here" (oil) but life doesn't happen without it. Not fuel. But medicine, chemical production, paint epoxy, plastics. Synthetics are certainly an option. But carbon capture to synthetic petroleum isnt going to replace the industry overnight. Regional production (like USO) is absolutely going to be relevant in a global market. I think ITM calls or low OTM calls for late Aug/Sept is what I'll look at? Room to grow. Higher impact from a steady increase. I was looking at... I think July 73 calls? They were down hard close to end of day Thursday last week. -$0.32? -$0.52? It was surprisingly significant. Should have bought. Stock was 70.xx? 71.xx? Now we're back to 72.10. I was in USOI which is a Credit Sussie USO covered call fund. When that bank looked bad the ETN DROPPED. God I wish I'd bought and sat far and happy on that dividend. So long as the bank doesn't go under that seems profitable. But without control of the ETN it feels safer to replicate the USOI strategy of "sell covered calls and close at +2% profit" or whatever their "mission statement" is? Tl;Dr oil will be here forever. Even if how we harvest it changes. Ps what are your thoughts on the Chevron share buy back? Looks to be 25-33% of their float. Based on $$$ to buy back and share prices.
Here we are a year later. Despite the Credit Suisse issues,USOI,SLVO,GLDI are doing well. I got out immediately for an 11% loss on USOI and negligible profits or losses on SLVO and GLDI. I dont remember. I figured they all would get delisted. Had I stayed in,I wouldve done well. If I was still in, I'd get out while I was ahead. It's only a matter of time. I have SMHB, MVRL,HDLB,MLPR by UBS. They are much more volatile than USOI,SLVO,GLDI. 10-20%+ yields40% right now with SMHB
Actually I'm in USOI- got in on 72.25 , now 81 , you think it's continue to go up ?
The writing was on the wall when USOI did its stock merger, if you didn't get out of Suisse then I don't really feel bad for you.
USOI will go up and so will the div!!! Good for my oil stocks ...
What about folks like me who have shares in CS ETFs (USOI)?
I hold USOI. Anything that keeps CS alive as an entity is ok in my books
Yeah eh, recession calls are wrong a lot but every leading indicator is pushing us towards a recession/depression in the next year. You can't raise interest rates this much and not cause a recession. Every asset purchased by companies in the past 10 years is now worth less given the change in RFR so every (smart) company will be refocusing their cash flow to pay down existing debt instead of hiring more likely going forward, likely mimicking a balance sheet recession. No clue what will happen of course but the narrative for recession right now is extremely evident when most times it feels like people just say, line went up so must go down so there will be recession! This is based on change in RFR, M2 money contraction, plummet in new housing permits issued, bond market drop; etc etc. Much stronger narrative currently than the usual 'what goes up must come down'. Past doesn't equal future of course but I think it's utterly silly to expect more upside than downside to the market currently. And initially people will flee to oil for commodity safety (which may have already happened tbh) and then realize that there's a ton of oil around if the global economy is slowing down leading to an eventual crash. I'm slowly pulling out of USOI holdings due to exactly your last sentence.
There’s covered calls ETNs like USOI, SLVO, GLDI
I mean... the WSB version of a dividend stock is $USOI. 🤷🤷♀️
Im down 12.7% as of today,January 23,2023, including withdrawals. I was down 30% on October 20,2022. Ive been trading my butt off to recuperate everything. Sometimes if something is not working you need to dump it. I took buying and holding to the extreme. Since then Ive redone my portfolio 3 times over the last 3 months with a 70% portfolio turnover rate. I was overweight 2 closed end funds but boy did I learn my lesson I dont buy individual stocks but high yield closed end funds, reits,bdcs, etns with high coupon payments. .. I set my portfolio up so that I now have over 30 different small positions with 5% in cash. I deploy the cash to positions on down days.. and on up days I sell off certain positions or hold. This way I dont exactly have to time the market because I have enough assets to monitor whats going up and down. I did tons of research and emerging market sovereign and corporate bond funds, mreits and bdcs, and anything related to oil,gas, and silver. I like etns(exchange traded notes not to be confused with etfs). They are riskier but so far have been very effective in tracking commodities, USOI,SLVO,GLDI..Its important to follow trading ranges...where is your position in relation to the 52 week high versus 52 week low..I prefer buying near low obviously. I missed out on most of the reit explosion but after the Fed raised rates in December I made 35% of my portfolio reits and bdcs and this propelled a 7% gain(recuperation of losses). Im certainly not bragging but sharing info that may help others in the red..Ive developed a few rules since my expensive mistake: Make sure portfolio never goes above 20% down...now Ive updated that rule: never go above 13% down. Instead of selling 100% of a position, I always hold on to 1-5%..whether Im selling for losses or gains Instead of going all in and buying 3000 shares of anything, I buy in small increments..50-100 shares or less on down days. Instead of reinvesting dividends(with the exception of a few assets), I let the cash accumulate. This lowers cost basis and positions dont need to go up as much to breakeven. Then I can strategically decide what to reinvest in. I have a high yield 14% dividend yield with mainly monthly dividends/distributions/coupon payments. Another rule: never just take someone's advice or opinion..always do your own research. . Another rule, its ok to take profits.
Down 20 overall..10% in my retail 25% inherited IRA for total combined loss of 20%. Portfolio down from different trades. I was down 30-33% in September to down 16% in October to down 15%for a few hours the day before the December fed meeting to down 20% the last day of the year...I have managed to stay between 16 and 20% down since October. Ive had success recuperating capital in emerging market sovereign and corporate bond cefs like EDF/EDI/FCO and generally fluctuate plus or minus 5% in OXLC,XFLT,ZTR plus Ive done well with etns for commodities USOI,SLVO,GLDI 35
You should look at the history on USOI 😎
USOI. Monthly dividend. Covered call etf
Throw what's left in USOI and just let the dividends build you back up. Monthly payout
Check out QYLD, XYLD, RYLD, USOI... Covered call ETFs are fairly common and you can find one linked to just about any asset you'd like. They do well in highly volatile, sideways markets. They provide some minor downside protection, in exchange for doing poorly in bulk markets. I'm holding about 20% in assorted CC ETFs ATM, because I have a feeling we're going sideways for a while. I'll quickly liquidate into their underlying assets when an uptrend solidifies.
You can buy USOI ETNS which have an insane dividend return but it’s credit suisse product and who knows what’s up with that company.
That's because you guys DCA into dumb shit. QYLD, USOI, GME 😂 Etc. If the goal is 20-30 years then the decline doesn't matter. You just keep buying shares every Monday
So, what happens to their dividend giving stonks like $GLDI if they go under? Do they just liquidate at some low value or does everyone try to sell off before it goes to zero? Some like $USOI have been soaring. Can someone explain to a highly regarded smoothbrain like me?
Monthly dividends JepQ JepI and USOI do it and raise your cash levels.
Disney lol. Buy oil stocks, ETFs, ETNs and anything you can get before winter comes. I bought USOI and it’s been paying me 20% in dividends. I’m hoping this lasts but we’ll see
USOI is my only dividend earning stock. I’ll just hang up my jacket myself, thanks.
So should I hold my USOI or nah (serious)
Sold my USOI this morning (Credit Suisse ETN). I'm not sure if an ETN would be in trouble if CS was in trouble but I'm not willing to risk it. Luckily USOI was up big at open and allowed me to get out with a small loss. USOI just reversed split 20-1 (my 4k shares went to 200). Maybe they are planning to dilute. Anyway, nothing I want to be part of.
SLVO and USOI had merges. So I’ve been forcefully made to sell at the local nadir. Cause apparently no partial share credits for me! (Webull). Fun. 🤦🏻♀️
So question on USOI. Any ideas why it recently jumped %1400 on September 27th?
Buy buy so I can exit my USOI position lmao.
Sell all my USOI at open
Think I’m going to sell all my USOI tomorrow
