      Amazon Options Strategy: Earn 2.9% in 65 Days by Selling a $250 Put

      You could buy 100 shares of $Amazon.com(AMZN)$ for roughly $26,600 today. Or you could sell the January 15, 2027 $250 put and collect approximately $720 in premium while waiting for a better entry. Amazon sold off following its October 29 earnings report. Earnings missed estimates, and management indicated that 2027 capital spending would be meaningfully higher than this year's roughly $220B. Shares fell to around $229 the following day, then rallied approximately 16% from that low. They now trade near $266, about 7% below their 52-week high. The underlying business continues to grow. AWS revenue increased 39% to $46B last quarter, while its backlog reached $578B. With the stock recovering, this put-selling strategy offers a way to get paid while
