Maximize Your Income: Explore Invesco Ltd’s Covered Call Opportunities

Discover the Potential of the July 2025 $21 Strike Call Option

Investors in Invesco Ltd (Symbol: IVZ) have an opportunity to enhance their income beyond the company’s 4.4% annualized dividend yield. By selling a covered call option for July 2025 at the $21 strike price, shareholders can potentially earn an additional 6.3% return, based on a current bid of 70 cents. If the stock price remains below $21, this could sum to a total annualized return of 10.7%. However, if IVZ shares exceed the $21 mark, the upside would be capped. Currently, the stock must increase by 13.2% for this scenario to occur. Should the stock be called, the overall return including dividends could reach 17% from this trading point.

Dividends can vary based on a company’s profitability, which makes understanding a company’s dividend history essential. Analyzing the dividend history chart for IVZ can offer insights into the sustainability of the current 4.4% yield.
