Shareholders of Designer Brands Inc (DBI) can enhance their income by selling a December 2027 covered call at a $10 strike price, collecting a premium of 85 cents. This strategy could yield an annualized return of 14.7%, combining the current 3.3% dividend yield with the call option premium. However, if DBI shares rise 65.8% to reach the $10 strike, shareholders would miss out on any further gains beyond that price.
The stock currently trades at $6.11, with an annualized volatility of 81%. On Monday, the S&P 500 saw put volume reach 3.56 million contracts and call volume at 7.07 million, resulting in a put:call ratio of 0.50, indicating a preference for calls among traders. This ratio is notably lower than the long-term median of 0.65.
