CNI - Adjustment

The following adjustment was made today on Canadian National Railway (CNI):

02-Jun-09 - Buy Back and Roll Out - BTC 1 Jun09 40.00 Call @ -5.04 -
02-Jun-09 - Interim Trade - STO 1 Jul09 40.00 Call @ 5.56 -
30-Jun-09 - Dividend Received - DIV 100 Dividend @ 0.25 -

Ex-dividend date for CNI is 6/4 and they will pay a $0.25/share dividend on 6/30. The Jun09 40 call was ITM with less than $0.25 time value remaining and was therefore in danger of an early exercise to capture the dividend. So, I rolled it out to a Jul09 40 Call for a net credit of $52 plus the $25 for the dividend for a total credit of $77.

Current Position Summary:

Stock Investment: $5,201.00
Income Generated: $1,011.42
Percent Income Generated: 19.45%
Annualized Income Generated: 23.90%
Net Profit If Called: -$189.58
