Halliburton reported better-than-expected earnings this week, buoyed by a surprisingly strong performance from its North American division — which offset flat-to declining revenues from other geographic segments. The offsetting strength or weakness of various business segments and geographic exposures, particularly for a mature business such as oil services, suggests the range-bound price action that Halliburton's share price has experienced for the past two years could continue. Consequently, if one owns Halliburton shares, consider writing upside calls, particularly now that the company has released earnings. If shares decline and one is assigned the effective purchase price would be $36.42, at which point one could then look to sell upside calls. BEFORE MAKING ANY FINANCIAL DECISIONS, YOU SHOULD STRONGLY CONSIDER SEEKING ADVICE FROM YOUR OWN FINANCIAL OR INVESTMENT ADVISOR.

Options trading may seem tricky, but Goldman Sachs has found a simple, profitable strategy. That options strategy is called overwriting. However, only one strategy has beaten the market for the last 18 years. This was a particularly effective strategy for stocks in the information technology and the consumer staples sectors. To that end, Marshall searched for stocks that have both a market cap within the top two-thirds of Goldman Sachs' stock coverage universe, as well as implied volatility in the top two-thirds of all the stocks Goldman Sachs analysts cover.

Goldman Sachs says 2023 should be a decent year for stocks even if there's a recession. The firm's investment strategy group discussed its multi-asset views this week. The simultaneous nosedive in stocks and bonds last year doesn't debunk the theory behind the traditional 60-40 portfolio, according to Goldman Sachs. But Sharmin Mossavar-Rahmani, the head of the Investment Strategy Group (ISG) at Goldman Sachs, says that it's not that unusual for stocks and bonds to move in the same direction. In fact, he noted that if a recession begins and ends in 2023, stocks may not have a bad year.
