Stock Market Today

  • Broadcom YieldBoost Strategy Using December 2028 Covered Calls
    January 26, 2026, 1:58 PM EST. Broadcom Inc (AVGO) shareholders seeking higher income can boost their annualized yield to 7.6% by selling December 2028 covered calls at the $520 strike. This option premium adds a 6.8% return to the existing 0.8% dividend yield, based on a $63.80 bid price. If Broadcom shares exceed $520 and get called away, investors realize a total gain of 79.4%, including dividends. The stock currently trades around $324.66, implying a 59.8% upside needed to trigger a call. Broadcom's trailing twelve-month volatility stands at 50%, helping gauge the risk of selling calls. Options data also show strong call activity relative to puts, suggesting bullish investor sentiment within the S&P 500 today.
