On the premise that Zeal’s options recommendations carry a lower risk than 90%, I took my Zeal newsletter to confirm my hypothesis. The results were opposite: the value of the calls are down, while the long positions are up.
Details for the current rate of return of the call, and the return if the stock had been purchased long on the first day of the month. Since I don’t subscribe to the Zeal Speculator, these purchase dates and prices may need adjustment.
Every stocks increased since the Zeal recommendation date. So why did the options go down?? Can someone explain this to me? Shouldn’t the options increase in value because the stock went up past the call value?
