Author argues MSFT at $400 is a great company at a fair price after earnings and sold a $400 March 20 put on margin to express the bullish view.

MSFT — LONG Author argues MSFT at $400 is a great company at a more than fair price after last earnings, and that waiting for deep value or a 20% margin of safety risks missing rare opportunities. To express this, the author sold a $400 put on margin expiring March 20, which is a bullish bet on the underlying. The implied risk is being assigned the shares if MSFT falls below $400 by expiration.

If MSFT at $400 isn't a great company at a more than fair price after last earnings, I don't know what is. Surely one can wait for deep value or a 20% margin of safety but I don't if opportunities like NVDA at $90 last April happen often. I didn't have cash so yesterday I sold a $400 put on margin expiring March 20.
