Alphabet (GOOG) stock has held up well during the latest stock market selloff. This bodes well for out-of-the-money short sellers of its put options, who make income selling near-term puts for income. In early trading on Tuesday, Sept. 26, GOOG stock is just below $130 per share.
This is only about 5% below where it was on Sept. 8, when I last wrote about GOOG stock. The stock was at $136.99 when I wrote the Barchart article, “Alphabet Stock Is Still Cheap, Especially for Short Sellers of Its Puts.”
