### Sold a put on Centene at US$38.5

*7 Oct 2025 · Assigned*

I agreed to buy 2,200 shares of Centene at US$38.5 each if the price fell to that level by 10 Oct 2025\. For making that promise, I was paid S$1,545 upfront.

The share price was below US$38.5 at expiry, so I bought the 2,200 shares at US$38.5 each. The upfront payment stays with me either way.
