Fellow Investor,
It's only a matter of time before you'll be claiming these results for yourself…
You see, I already know that Forbes' readers are an exclusive group of investors.
You're educated, well informed and rightly skeptical of promises that seem pie–in–the–sky.
Yet you're open–minded and willing to "consider" a new way of investing…that goes beyond buy, hold and hope. Or buy, sell and weep. Over the past few months, we've seen the markets in turmoil. The volatility is not likely to disappear soon.
It's no wonder so many investors are frustrated…and concerned that many traditional investment strategies no longer work the way they used to!
So a conservative strategy promising to boost your yield many times over, while reducing risk…is worth looking into. Wouldn't you agree?
Your reply might be—"Well, yes…so long as it's a safe strategy; one with a successful track record. But you'll have to show me some proof and credibility before I'll commit to anything!" Fair enough. Introducing… Two Powerful Income Strategies for Blue Chips I'm going to show you how to supercharge your income and profits…no matter what the markets may be doing. At the end of August, the market correction most analysts and investors expected…arrived with a bang!
Yet even when the market pulls back, there are ALWAYS opportunities to make money with my Two Powerful Income Strategies for Blue Chips.
Up, down or sideways…it makes no difference! Volatility becomes our ally.
Warren Buffett knows this. Yes, even the Dean of Conservative Value Investing uses these strategies to make billions. | Selling Covered Calls and Selling Puts on Blue Chip stocks— the two–pronged strategy I've used to generate an average annualized yield of 34.8% on 235 closed trades over the past 21 months! | Since March 2014, just 11 of my 235 closed trades (4.9%) resulted in losses…and the average loss was only 6%!
Put another way, that's a WIN rate of 95.4%! 9.5 out of 10 trades put cash into my readers' pockets. These are fully documented, actual trading results. "I have read many investing newsletters over the years. Your service is by far the best. I have never lost a penny and I have had some big winners! Forget Springsteen, you are da Boss. Whenever I have new capital available to invest now, your service is always the first place I look for recommendations."—Andrew Chesterton Profit in 4 out of 5 Market Scenarios! | What's even more astonishing to most investors is the fact that my two options trading strategies allow investors to profit in 4 out of 5 market scenarios! I'll explain how in just a moment. But first, allow me to introduce myself.
My name is John Dobosz. I'm the editor–in–chief of Forbes Premium Income Report. I'm also the editor of Forbes Dividend Investor. Think of me as the resident Guru of Income Investing at Forbes!
In today's world of near–zero interest rates…investors know that generating decent income to pay the bills and fund a comfortable retirement has become a huge challenge. | | Meet John Dobosz Income Investing Guru In addition to his responsibilities as editor of Forbes Premium Income Report and Forbes Dividend Investor, John is responsible for money and investing coverage on Forbes.com and in Forbes magazine. Prior to joining Forbes in 2001, John was a producer at Bloomberg TV, and a producer/reporter with CNN Financial News…working with Lou Dobbs to cover the options and futures markets. He holds a B.A. in business administration and finance from the University of Florida. | | That's why Forbes Media Chairman Steve Forbes asked me to make my options trading strategies available to Forbes readers.
Steve wanted to publish a premium income advisory service that would focus on generating income far beyond what the average investor earns…and far beyond what he ever imagined he could earn.

Last week, Steve checked back with me to review the outstanding results our subscribers have achieved. | Home Run Winners Like These! $10,810 on Aetna covered calls—in 58 days from 3/20/2014 $10,740 on American Railcar Industries covered calls—in 60 days from 4/22/14 $10,310 on GNC Holdings puts—in 37 days from 7/10/14 $8,075 on Valero Energy covered calls—in 32 days from 9/16/14 | Ten contracts on each of those four trades pumped $39,935 cash profits into my readers' wallets. Non–refundable cash (not paper profits) they could reinvest to pump up their profits even further…or use for a luxury cruise or a new car! Each of those trades represented either a sale of covered calls, or a sale of puts. You see, if you're new to options trading…there's one critical fact to understand. If You Want to Lose Money—Buy Options If You Want to Supercharge Your Income—Sell Options Here's why.
Speculators buy options. And option buyers lose money 75% of the time!
Studies by the Chicago Mercantile Exchange reveal that on average, 3 out of every 4 options expire worthless. Simply put, the odds are heavily weighted toward options sellers.
This is why the average Joe thinks options trading is risky. It certainly can be…when you buy them!
However, investors are on the opposite side of the trade. They are selling to the speculators. Investors Collect Money from Speculators Who Bet the Wrong Way on a Stock's Price Action Using my options trading strategy, my Forbes Premium Income Report subscribers take the road less traveled to build a hefty and reliable income stream, month after month. We make money on 9.5 trades out of 10…by selling options to speculators. "I have been a big dividend guy for some time now, but since trading covered calls and put writing I am beginning to change my allocations more toward the latter. Every time I crunch the numbers I have a hard time justifying settling for 2–3% per year when I am honestly averaging that per month with the options. What am I missing? Sure, the covered calls will go down when we hit a bear market but so will all of my blue chip holdings, right? Yes, buying and holding the blue chips offer chance for growth over time, but if you're getting 2–3% per month, isn't that growth also?"—Stephen M. You too can maximize your income stream!

The foundation of my strategy lies in the fact that most options expire worthless. I use two income–oriented tactics:
- Selling call options against stock you already own
- Selling put options on stocks you wouldn't mind buying and owning…if you can buy them at a lower price.
We collect handsome option premiums when we sell either covered calls or puts.
We collect the cash upfront…cash that flows right into our brokerage accounts.
In fact, placing options trades like this every month is practically like creating your own ATM! Here Are Some Essential Facts You'll Want to Know The average holding period for my option trades is 455 days.
The average cash yield per holding period, for all 235 closed trades since March 2014—was 5.1%! My minimum goal is to earn an annualized yield of 15% on every trade. To date, I've exceeded that goal more than twice over! Because… The Average Annualized Yield for All Winning Trades Has Been 34.8%! Only 11 trades out of the total 235 trades lost money. Yet the average loss was just 6%. That's a track record any one would envy. "Forbes Premium Income Report is a terrific bargain. It's like having a personal advisor looking over your shoulder, helping subscribers observe Steve Forbes' admonition…"with all thy getting, get understanding." It took me a long time to get up the nerve to start trading options, despite having traded stocks for eons. I still welcome basic explanations of the mechanics, as in today's edition.
Your options guidance provides rapid capital turnaround, with protection against most downside losses. Another benefit is that it's not necessary to decide when to sell a stock. Option expiration takes care of that.
There's such a flood of offerings that fresh material is always available. I hope to gain enough confidence to recognize when it's ok to deviate ever–so–slightly from your recommendations." Roger L. I rely on a combination of technical analysis and fundamental analysis to select the stocks I recommend for option trades.
My proprietary screening systems comb through hundreds of stocks on a weekly basis.
In fact, over the years I've created a list of "Go–To" stocks that I use over and over again. These are typically large, blue chip companies with reliable trends and strong fundamentals. The kind of companies I want to own for the long term—both for the juicy dividends they pay and their long–term capital gain potential. For example, options I've sold on stocks such as Wells Fargo, Vodafone, Nucor, Aetna, Yahoo, GE and Merck have all been strong performers.
My FREE report—Maximize Your Income On 7 Blue Chip Dividend Stocks—reveals how you can sell covered calls or sell puts on 7 well–known blue chip companies. They are companies that many investors either own…or would be happy to own. The report provides all the details, analysis and charts to illustrate the strategies from A to Z. Click here to maximize your income! I only recommend trades where the odds are strongly in our favor.
So when I place a trade to sell a covered call…or to sell a put, the short–term risks are quantifiable and manageable. There are no unknowns going in!
I'm not trying to predict major market moves. Instead, I select stocks… ✔ Where the income (premium) potential is the greatest and ✔ Where I expect the price may trend up slightly, trend down a bit or move in a sideways channel before the option expiration dates. A moment ago, I mentioned that we make money in 4 out of 5 market scenarios. Here's a Classic Example to Illustrate What I Mean Let's say you buy 100 shares of Facebook (FB) at a price of $87.74.
You simultaneously sell 1 FB October 17 $90 call option contract and receive a cash premium of $495. (The premium for that strike price ($90) and expiration date (October 17) is $4.95 per share. Each contract represents 100 shares. $4.95 x 100 = $495.).
The cash premium you have received reduces your cost per share to $82.79. (Initial purchase price of $87.74—premium per share of $4.95 = $82.79.)
Now what? There are 4 possible scenarios which would earn you a profit. - If Facebook trades at $90 or higher on the expiration date, you must sell your 100 shares of Facebook to the option buyer at a price of $90 per share. But, you will earn total income of $721 from this one options trade. $90 sale price per share–$82.79 cost basis per share = $7.21 x 100 shares = $721.
That's a cash yield of 8.21% for a trade that lasted less than 60 days. $721 ÷ $8,774 (initial cost to purchase 100 FB shares) = 8.21%.
Not bad! Now take a look at three other possible outcomes.
- If Facebook's price does nothing by the expiration date or…
- If its price trades slightly higher, but remains below the strike price of $90 or…
- If its price trades lower, but remains above your cost of $82.79…
Then you keep your 100 shares of Facebook, and you keep the full cash premium of $495. By repeating this process over and over, you create a steady flow of income from one stock.
When you know what you're doing, it becomes very easy to set up your trades, collect your money and then walk away with a fatter wallet. It's A Win-Win-Win Cycle of Increased Cash Flow! This is the exact strategy I've used to produce winners time after time for my subscribers.
Consider these winning trades in 2015… | $2,030 from 10 Wells Fargo Calls—in 59 days from 1/20/15 $3,890 from 10 Microsoft Puts—in 80 days from 1/27/15 $1,000 from 10 Kellogg Puts—in 36 days from 2/12/15 $2,710 from 10 Facebook Calls—in 31 days from 2/17/15 $2,380 from 10 Vodafone Calls—in 115 days from 3/24/15 $1,000 from 10 Caterpillar Puts—in 15 days from 4/30/15 | Now, as I mentioned, there is one possible scenario where the investor could lose money. That's if the Facebook shares trade below $82.79 per share at expiration.
However, the income you made by selling the call…buffered the loss from your purchase price of $87.74 down to your adjusted cost of $82.79. Still, you would have a paper loss on the position if the price falls below $82.79. But remember, we purchased Facebook because we like the company for its long term fundamentals. So we can live with a temporary small loss! So How About It? Are you ready to try a new way of investing…that goes beyond buy, hold and hope? Or buy sell and weep? Are you ready to test–drive my options trading strategies so you can harvest some serious income, month after month?
I'm talking about a test–drive with a 100% Risk–Free Trial attached. Remember, my subscribers are pocketing cash returns of 5.1% every 55 days, on average. No matter what the market is doing! Heading up, down or sideways.
That's a $5,100 cash return on a $100,000 portfolio every 55 days. Or $12,750 on a $250,000 portfolio every 55 days!
