$Bce Inc(BCE)$ $Imperial(IMO)$ US Tariff War on Canada With February approaching, there's a major deadline looming – the month when Trump could launch his global trade war. A 25% tariff is being proposed for both Canada and Mexico, and they could be the first targets.

How I Protected My Profits with SPYG and going to use premium to buy more

How I Protected My Profits with SPYG Last week, as SPYG was trading around $87.20, I decided to protect my gains by selling a covered call at a strike price of $89, collecting a premium of $3.07 per share. This move effectively lowered my cost basis on SPYG to $84.13 ($87.20 - $3.07), giving me a 9% hedge against what I initially paid. Now, with SPYG trading at $92, my strategy has worked well. While my upside is capped at $89, I have still secured profits while collecting premiums. My net profit per share is approximately $4.87 ($89 - $84.13), plus the premium I received upfront. My Next Steps With the $345 in premiums collected from selling this call, I plan to dollar-cost average into more SPYG shares in batches. By reinvesting these earnings, I can keep accumulating shares at a lower c
