New Weekly Options – on Stocks!

Today, June 25th, 2010, marked another new stock options investing product for investors.

Weekly options, also called short-term options or short dated options, have been available for some time on broad based market indexes: S&P 500 ($SPX), Nasdaq 100 ($NDX) and Russell 2000 ($RUT) for example. Earlier this month weekly options were released for certain ETFs: SPY, QQQQ, DIA and IWM. Today weekly options were released on four popular stocks:

Weekly options carry the same rights and obligations as standard calls and puts. The only difference is that the expiration time frame is shorter. Weekly options are typically released on Friday (in this case Friday, June 25th) and will expire the following Friday (July 2nd). Weekly options can be used in various strategies just like standard options: Covered Calls, Collars, Married Puts, Vertical Spreads, Condors and Butterfly positions. The premiums will be slightly lower compared to the standard expiration options naturally due to the lower time value.
