Technicals
AMD has been consolidating sideways since mid-April and appears poised for an upside breakout. Buyers have been defending the lower end of the range near support at $50 while sellers have capped gains at a trendline that originates from the peak posted in February. Consolidations typically break in the direction of the broader trend and this particular stock has had a strong bullish trend for more than four years. Unlike other stocks that are appealing to investors right now, AMD does not show signs of being overbought on a daily timeframe which reduces the chances of a sharp near-term retracement. In terms of support, the 20 and 50-day moving averages have converged towards each other to offer a floor at $53.50.

If you agree there's further upside ahead for AMD, consider this trade which is a bet that the stock will continue to advance over the next five weeks, or at least not decline very much.
Buy To Open AMD 14AUG20 50 Puts (AMD200814P50)
Sell To Open AMD 14AUG20 55 Puts (AMD200814P55) for a credit of $2.01 (selling a vertical)
This price was $0.02 less than the mid-point of the option spread when AMD was trading near $56. Unless the stock rallies quickly from here, you should be able to get close to this amount.
Your commission on this trade will only be $1.30 per spread. Each contract would then yield $199.70 and your broker would charge a $500 maintenance fee, making your investment $300.30 ($500 – $199.70). If AMD closes at any price above $55 on August 14, both options would expire worthless, and your return on the spread would be 67% (764% annualized).

How we're pulling in 67% a year - without margin, options, or gimmicks
Like any other investor, I try to buy low and sell high... but the BIG difference with me is that I only buy one kind of stock. 37 of these cash cows are in my portfolio right now... and for every dollar invested in them they are sending us 67 cents in dividends. That's an effective yield of 67% a year-every year. All without leverage, options, or gimmicks.
