Investment Idea Sharing August 16, 2014

Investment Idea Sharing – August 16, 2014: 
See my stock sale this week (JCP) below.
  
Last week, the world market indices were mostly flat, except for Hong Kong (Hang Seng HSI) which hit a new 5 year high this week.  https://finance.yahoo.com/echarts?s=%5EHSI+Interactive#symbol=%5Ehsi;range=5y;compare=;indicator=rsi+volume;charttype=area;crosshair=on;ohlcvalues=0;logscale=off;source=;
I can’t find a good article that explains why the HSI is so high.
The Dow Jones 30 Industrials and S&P 500 are still very near all time highs. 

I continue to look for stocks that have good fundamental financial values, but stock prices  near 52 week lows.

Next Monthly Meeting 2nd Tuesday of Each Month:
I need to move the August monthly meeting to the 3rd Tuesday for August only.
It will be Tuesday, August 19, 2014, 7:30 PM at my house.

Here are my Stock SELLs for This Week:
Stock Symbol: JCP
Sell Date:  Aug. 15, 2014
Sell Price:  $9
Buy Price: $10
Buy Date: Jan. 17, 2014 (I originally sold a $10 PUT on JCP for $1.50 on Apr. 10, 2013.  JCP was PUT to me on Jan 17, 2014.  I then sold a Covered CALL on JCP on March 25, 2014 at Strike price of $9 for $1.15.  I was finally called out of JCP this week on Aug. 15. 
Net profit / share on my $10 investment was $1.50 (sold PUT) plus $1.15 (sold CALL) minus $10 (stock buy price) plus $9 (stock sell price) = $1.50+$1.15-$10+$9=$1.65 for having $10 tied up for 17 months (Apr.2013 to Aug.2014).  This works out to an 11% return per year on an annualized basis.
