Well, that was fun!
Yesterday we were treated to the latest interest rate hike from the Federal Reserve and a speech and Q&A with Fed Chairman Powell that apparently wasn’t well received by the market as stocks slid furiously into the closing bell and continued the selloff into this morning.
Where we go from here is anyone’s guess. Still, I’d like to take the opportunity to continue taking advantage of consistently elevated options premiums and put on a delta-neutral credit spread in an area of the market where I think some sideways rangebound action may be setting up into the end of the year.
