TSQ Dividend-Like Income Using Covered Calls
With TSQ at 6.38, 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 |

| 10% |
