AMRS Options Strategy with downside protectionMultinational biotech company Amyris manufactures and sells synthetic ingredients to the clean beauty, personal care, health and wellness, flavor and fragrance, nutrition, food and beverage markets in Europe, North America, South America, and Asia. It also offers products under the Biossance, Purecane, Costa Brazil, OLIKA, and JVN brand names. Amyris also collaborated with the Infectious Disease Research Institute to develop a COVID-19 vaccine using their synthetic squalene, otherwise found naturally in sharks. As global demand increases beyond natural supplies, the company believes that synthetic ingredients are the sustainable way to go. TA-minded traders might also see some pretty bullish patterns forming (falling wedge, double bottom, even Elliot Wave on the shorter timeframes). However, with Microsoft earnings leading a drop in the stock market today, how can investors balance fear and fear of missing out? Here's a hedged #options strategy that makes a fixed 10% yield (26% annualized yield) unless $AMRS falls more than 69% to below $0.50. More downside protection: Start to lose only if AMRS falls by more than 71% to below $0.46 as of 6/16/23. Sell 5 $0.50 puts Expiring 6/16/23 Capital required: $229

RUN hedged options strategyThere are lots of bullish arguments to make for solar stocks this year, including the Inflation Reduction Act and global demand, especially in Europe. California-based Sunrun designs, installs, sells and maintains residential solar panels directly to customers. Other business areas include battery storage, leasing energy services, and a "virtual power plant" with installed Sunrun panels actually exporting energy back to the grid. Relatively few homes have solar panels installed, but homeowners are increasingly interested in them and associated tax benefits, making growth potential in this area of the clean energy market quite high. Technically-minded traders might also wonder if RUN stock will repeat its falling wedge pattern, and possibly even see a double bottom forming. On the other hand, with over $5 billion in debt (as of March 2021) and Fed interest rate hikes adversely affecting tech and growth stocks, is Sunrun the safest place to park money right now? This hedged options strategy protects from a fall of up to 32% as of 8/18/23 and also makes up to 25% (44% annualized). Buy 1 $20 call Sell 1 $27.50 call Sell 2 $15 put Expiring Aug 18, 2023 Capital requirement: $2994
