	PDD Dividend-Like Income Using Covered Calls
	With PDD at 134.68, here's a table showing how big the annual "dividend" (i.e. total annual call premium received) would need to be to attain 3%, 5%, and 10% annual yields. Also shown is the equivalent number of cents/day necessary to achieve each yield:
	| Annual Yield | 
	Annual Premium | 
	Cents/Day | 
	| 3% | 
	4.04 | 
	1.1 | 
	| 5% | 
	6.73 | 
	1.8 | 
	| 10% | 
	13.47 | 
	3.7 | 
	So now we need to find  out of the money covered calls that pay at least the prescribed cents/day amount of time premium. That will generate income and, because they are out of the money, leave room for some upside potential on the stock. Here are some examples:
