Just wrote the T covered calls for $19 strike expiring in a couple of weeks (right before earnings). only 12 cent of premium but it is factoring in the 28 cent dividend I will capture next week. This is my 4th covered call in about 6 weeks of ownership.

Fed minutes follow-up:
- Participants were wary of unwarranted easing in financial condition, especially if driven by misperception by the public of the committees reaction function
- Several officials noted dot plot tracking notably above market
- A couple of FED officials saw inflation risks as more balanced
- Officials generally saw inflation risks as a key factor
- Officials cited risk inflation could be more persistent
- Slowing pace of rate increases shouldn't be viewed as sign of weaker resolve
- Concurred progress on inflation has been made but need to see substantially more evidence heading back to target

Saw this new buzzword for the first time today " SLOWCESSION". Got to create a new word.
www.marketwatch.com
Fully expect this to be a buzzword everywhere in 2 weeks.
Forget recession — the U.S. is heading for a ‘slowcession’ that could last all year, Moody’s warns
Even if the U.S. avoids a recession in 2023, consumers and investors could face a grinding slowdown that likely won't let up until 2024, says Mark Zandi.

I know market prices don't fully depend on news events, and its at least partially random, but shouldnt lower natgas inventories than expected lead to rising prices rather than a sudden drop?
Is there some kind of "clever", bad is good, fed will pivot, backwards thinking going on here?

In complex markets no one thing is the only thing. Does lower than expected inventories negate very mild and warm weather across Europe . Think how easy things would be if they were as binary as you present. There is nothing to figure out, the net aggregate opinion of all market participants weighing all data on all time frames to find a price

While I can appreciate a good "the markets are complex" dodge as much as the next guy, I was pretty specifically asking about the sudden drop this morning when nat gas inventories were released. The weather didnt suddenly warm up at that exact moment
I get it, its complex, I was just wondering if anyone had read an explanation for why that particular piece of news would move it in the opposite of the generally expected direction

More than expected is a meme, more than expected by who? The shitty analysts they let publicly post their opinions. Ok. They don’t tell you what they really expect.
real answer is prolly the proprietary algos expected even worse and then it was less than expected.
