Strategy To YieldBoost Chemours From 4.4% To 10.1% Using Options

Shareholders of Chemours Co (CC) looking to boost their income beyond the stock's 4.4% annualized dividend yield can sell the January 2026 covered call at the $32 strike and collect the premium based on the $2.05 bid, which annualizes to an additional 5.8% rate of return against the current stock price (at Stock Options Channel we call this the YieldBoost), for a total of 10.1% annualized rate in the scenario where the stock is not called away. Any upside above $32 would be lost if the stock rises there and is called away, but CC shares would have to advance 39.6% from current levels for that to happen, meaning that in the scenario where the stock is called, the shareholder has earned a 48.6% return from this trading level, in addition to any dividends collected before the stock was called.
