2025 ahead: New dreams, new paths

AAPL shares or options?

When it comes to Apple, it’s hard not to admire its dominance and innovation. I’ve always liked Warren Buffett’s take—stick to companies with products people love. Apple ticks that box perfectly, but I'm thinking of switching things up in 2025.
I’ve mostly held straight shares, but now I’m curious about dabbling in options. Would options give me a way to manage risk while testing potential upside? Or am I better off adding more shares and staying the course? The numbers look great, but there’s always the macroeconomic uncertainty and those pesky whispers of slower growth.

Here’s my plan for 2025:
I’m considering starting small with options, maybe experimenting with covered calls for income while holding on to shares for stability. I’d also explore long calls for upside exposure if the market looks favorable. If the options strategy feels too risky or complicated, I’ll pivot and just increase my shares. The goal is to strike a balance—limit risk, but still participate in potential growth.

Please take a look at my plan and let me know if you think it’s feasible or needs adjustments.

  • Kuries : The covered call strategy can give you extra income, but I’d be cautious about going too aggressive on calls if the market starts to slow. I’m personally sticking to shares but keeping a close eye on options when the right opportunity arises.

  • Ahh_gee_Joey : I'm cautious about the volatility. I feel like adding more shares would give me more stability, especially with the macroeconomic uncertainty ahead. What’s your plan if the market turns sour, though?

  • areecep OP Kuries : I hear you—options can open up great opportunities, but like you said, the risk is real. I’ll probably start small and monitor the market closely. Thanks for the insight!

  • areecep OP Ahh_gee_Joey : Appreciate the input! [undefined]I’m leaning toward a mix of both, but like you said, macro uncertainty is a concern. If things take a downturn, I’ll probably stick to more shares for stability. Let’s see how it plays out.
