Put Selling against VISA Stock has been a terrific trade since the collapse of the markets back in March 2009. Visa Stock symbol is V Stock and it trades on New York.
My most recent article looking at Put Selling Visa Stock included a lot of information on the value of Put Selling VISA Stock and the strategies used. It has been a Put Selling income generator for 4 years and 2013 looks like it will repeat that performance!
Meanwhile today MasterCard announced plans to follow Visa’s lead and increase transaction fees for small merchants this summer. MasterCard plans to increase assessment fees by 20 percent on small to medium-size businesses.
While this is disappointing to many businesses that feel Visa and MasterCard are already charging high fees there is really very little recourse for businesses as MasterCard and VISA pretty well monopolize the entire credit card market. Visa on the other hand is raising their fees higher than MasterCard.
Visa Stock and Fees
This increase in fees I believe will continue to push VISA Stock higher and can only add to my Put Selling profits. As readers might recall, with my original investment in Visa Stock I am continuing to sell Covered Calls for excellent option premiums, but in 2012 Visa Stock put premiums also earned excellent returns as the stock continued to climb.

Put Selling Visa Stock Summary
The long-term uptrend remains intact on Visa Stock making it an ideal Put Selling candidate. Should I ever get assigned shares due to Put Selling I will be happy to sell covered calls to be exercised out. In the interim, if I ever was assigned shares, I would continue with Put Selling even while holding shares and waiting to be exercised out. Visa Stock remains a winner for Put Selling and the profits from the past few years show a stellar return. The key for me has been watching for the dips in Visa Stock before Put Selling and staying out of the money to avoid assignment.
