76% Informative

Microsoft Corp ( MSFT ) stock is trading at $ 492.50 , just off its recent peak of $ 497.45 on June 26 .

Sell-side stock analysts continue to raise their price targets on Microsoft Corp.

One way to play this is to sell short out-of-the-money ( OTM ) MSFT puts.

They provide a short-put yield of over 1.3% one month out for a 4% lower strike price.

The $ 470.00 strike put has a premium of $ 6.80 per put option contract shorted.

That is slightly over 4% below today 's price.

The short-put yield is higher than before (for new investors), almost 1.5% higher.

Less risk-averse investors can short the $ 475.00 put for $ 8.05 , for a net gross yield of 1.69% .
