Top Trades for Thu, 12 Dec 2019 10:01 – TD

Speaking of TD - This deal is dropping 13.4% of SCHW in their laps at about $7Bn and that's way up from what they valued their remaining stake in AMTD.  TD is a good value anyway at $55.60, which is $100Bn with a $2.24 (4%) Dividend and they might spit out a special dividend down the road.  

Even if these are Canadian Dollars, TD is way undervalued:

Profitability

So, as an eventual LTP play, we can put TD in the STP but let's also do a Dividend play:

For the Dividend Portfolio:

  • Sell 5 TD July $57.50 puts for $4.10 ($2,050) 

We're kind of full but I'd sell something else to buy TD for net $53.40.

For the STP:

  • Sell 10 TD July $55 puts for $2.65 ($2,650) 
  • Buy 15 TD July $52.50 calls for $4 ($6,000) 
  • Sell 15 TD July $57.50 calls for $1.20 ($1,800) 

That's net $1,550 on the $7,500 spread so $5,950 (383%) upside potential in just 218 days if all goes well and, if it doesn't, we're very happy to establish a bigger TD position in the LTP.  Ordinary Margin is $10,500 - not terribly efficient but very manageable.
