Decoding Lam Research's Options Activity: What's the Big Picture?

<p>When it comes to remote work, some people are taking full advantage of the flexibility it offers – and one software engineer has taken it to the next level. <a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/overemployed/comments/1i354ox/just_hit_2_month_anniversary_with_j2_this_is/">Sharing</a> their story on Reddit's r/overemployed community, they detailed how they <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/24/08/40649739/americans-are-juggling-multiple-jobs-over-60-hours-every-week-to-pay-their-bills-">added a second job</a> paying $175,000 to their already comfortable $100,000 remote role. The result? Saving $20,000 in just two months.</p>
<p>Here's how they did it, why they say it's worth the effort and what others in the community had to say about their approach.</p>
<p><strong>Don't Miss:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li><strong><a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/62-years-old-with-1-mil-saved">I&#8217;m 62 Years Old And Have $1.2 Million Saved. Is This Enough to Retire Stress-Free?</a></strong></li>
<li><strong>The average American couple has saved this much money for retirement —<a href="http://www.benzinga.com/money/smartasset"><strong> </strong><strong>How do you compare</strong></a>?</strong></li>
</ul>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">A Leap of Faith Pays Off</h2>
<p>For five years, they had been working a $100,000-a-year software engineering job that only required about 20 hours of actual work weekly. While the job's <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/startups/24/10/41231722/kevin-oleary-says-theres-no-worklife-balance-for-new-entrepreneurs-as-guys-in-mumbai-or-shanghai-wor">work-life balance</a> was great, they decided to test the waters of Overemployment – a strategy where people work two or more remote jobs at the same time.</p>
<p>"I decided to take a leap of faith and accepted J2 at $175,000," they wrote, referring to the second job. "I only expected to last a couple of weeks, but it has been surprisingly feasible." Fast forward two months and they had banked $20,000 in extra income, which they're using for a house down payment.</p>
<p><strong>Trending: Warren Buffett once said, "If you don't find a way to make money while you sleep, you will work until you die."<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/warren-buffet-make-money-when-you-sleep"><strong> </strong><strong>Here&#8217;s how you can earn passive income with just $100.</strong></a></strong></p>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Juggling Two Jobs</h2>
<p>How do they make it work? Both jobs are fully remote and they put in about 50 hours weekly across the two roles. &#8220;I usually do just enough work each day for both jobs that I can give a decent update at daily scrum ceremonies and then I catch up on Sundays and work a few hours for whatever job I'm behind on.&#8221;</p>
<p>The secret to success is focusing on completing enough work for each job to give solid updates during daily stand-ups, a common practice in software development. To stay on top of things, they use Sundays to catch up on tasks if either job falls behind during the week.</p>
<p>"I work much more efficiently than my coworkers, I guess," they shared. "I get assigned a task that it'd take the average dev a week to finish and I can do it in three days. I'm &#8216;active&#8217; 40 hours a week but really only work like 20."</p>
<p><strong>Trending: Many are using retirement income calculators to check if they&#8217;re on pace —<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-do-i-calculate-my-retirement-income-adv"><strong> </strong><strong>here&#8217;s a breakdown on what&#8217;s behind this formula.</strong></a></strong></p>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The Financial Perks – and Challenges</h2>
<p>The financial boost has been life-changing. With the additional income, they have been able to accelerate savings goals, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/buying-a-house-in-january">buy a house</a> and even treat themselves to small luxuries like <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/real-estate/24/05/38878508/millennials-coming-to-a-golf-course-community-near-you">new golf clubs</a>. But, as they admit, maintaining two jobs is challenging.</p>
<p>"It's Winter right now, so I&#8217;m hibernating inside anyways," they explained. "But if I make it through the spring, it's going to be tough not to leave J2. Hours are until 6 p.m. in the evening and it&#8217;s a contract, so I get no paid time off.&#8221; If they miss even one day, they&#8217;re giving up $600.</p>
<p>This dynamic has left them feeling a bit "trapped" by the high pay, but they're still grateful for the opportunity to build their financial cushion.</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Advice from the OE Community</h2>
<p>The r/overemployed community chimed in with advice and encouragement. Some suggested they "slow roll" tasks by stretching out timelines to make juggling both roles easier. Others emphasized the importance of maximizing retirement contributions and investing wisely to make the most of the extra income.</p>
<p>One commenter summed it up: "Make hay while the sun shines. Make sure you max your 401(k), IRA, HSA, etc. and then pile a ton of the rest into a brokerage and/or mortgage."</p>

<p>The telecom sector's outlook remains optimistic, considering the positive forecasts in artificial intelligence. Moreover, interest rate cuts throughout 2024, and President Trump&#8217;s push for further rate reductions, could support positive sentiments and hence, industry growth.</p>
<p>Notably, telecom giants <strong>AT&amp;T</strong> (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/T#NYSE">T</a>), <strong>Verizon </strong>(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VZ#NYSE">VZ</a>), <strong>T-Mobile</strong> (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TMUS#NASDAQ">TMUS</a>) and <strong>Comcast </strong>(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CMSCA#NASDAQ">CMSCA</a>) reported relatively healthy Q4 earnings, reinforcing investor confidence:</p>
<ul>
<li>Comcast<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/43335926/comcast-q4-earnings-beats-estimates-peacock-subscribers-surge-29-dividend-raised-15-billion-buyback-approved"> exceeded Wall Street's expectations</a>, driven by strong broadband revenues, despite customer losses. Earnings per share (EPS) is at 96 cents adjusted revenue at $31.92 billion; net income was $4.78 billion, up 47% year over year, and adjusted EBITDA growth of 10%.</li>
<li>Verizon's Q4 results reflected healthy growth, with both revenue and earnings <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/01/43189382/verizon-q4-earnings-revenue-beat-1-million-mobile-and-broadband-subscriber-adds-business-segment-margin-expands">surpassing estimates</a>. Its EPS was recorded at $1.10 adjusted, revenue at $35.68 billion, and net Income at $5.11 billion, rebounding from a loss a year ago.</li>
<li>AT&amp;T reported <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/43230968/att-q4-earnings-307k-fiber-adds-projects-mid-teens-broadband-growth-in-2025">strong subscriber growth</a> and operational efficiency gains, with EPS and revenues at $0.54 and $32.3 billion respectively.

Richmond Mutual Bancorporation: Time To Take Profits

<p><a href="https://investorplace.com">InvestorPlace - Stock Market News, Stock Advice &amp; Trading Tips</a></p>
<p>As recessionary fears grip Wall Street, it&rsquo;s a great time to beef up your portfolio with safe haven stocks. That&rsquo;s one takeaway to consider in light of recent activity roiling the stock markets. Investors have watched the narrative shift from the timing of rate cuts to a potential recession gripping the United States over the past week. Economic data is <a href="https://finance.yahoo.com/news/wall-street-economists-say-investor-fears-about-recession-are-overblown-190225299.html">confusing and seemingly contradictory</a> at best.</p>



<p>Investors have also watched the markets try to make sense of valuations for leading equities, especially the Magnificent Seven, and how to pivot. Those factors and more suggest now is an excellent time to lean defensive for investors.</p>



<p>Should the economy and stock market worsen, a stronger defensive position will provide income dividends to buffer against greater losses. And should the economy and stock market improve most defensive stocks are still reasonable investments overall as they tend to be fundamentally sound.</p>



<p>Investors should not let fear overwhelm them and instead follow the time-tested wisdom of the markets.</p>



<h2>Wendy&rsquo;s (WEN)</h2>



<div><img width="300" height="169" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/wendys-1600-300x169.jpg" alt="A photo of a Wendy's chicken sandwich and chicken nuggets."><div>Source: Deutschlandreform / Shutterstock.com</div></div><p><strong>Wendy&rsquo;s</strong> (NASDAQ:<span><a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/wen-stock-quote/"><strong>WEN</strong></a></span>) is a stock worth considering right now for a number of reasons. Let&rsquo;s jump into those reasons straight away without an explanation of its business, as the company is a household name.&nbsp;</p>



<p>Firstly, let&rsquo;s consider competition and why Wendy&rsquo;s could garner more attention soon. As you may have guessed, I&rsquo;m referring to <strong>McDonald&rsquo;s</strong> (NYSE:<span><a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/mcd-stock-quote/"><strong>MCD</strong></a></span>) and its troubles. Inflation has resulted in McDonald&rsquo;s facing real issues at the moment. Worldwide sales recently fell for the <a href="https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/article/2024/jul/30/mcdonalds-same-store-sales-fall-worldwide-for-first-time-since-2020">first time in four years.</a> McDonald&rsquo;s is making serious efforts, but it opens a door for Wendy&rsquo;s and its stock.&nbsp;</p>



<p>Wendy&rsquo;s gave <a href="https://www.marketwatch.com/story/wendys-stock-bolstered-as-sales-guidance-offsets-q2-revenue-miss-9cff2028">strong sales guidance</a> for the upcoming quarter despite a revenue miss in Q2. That could be enough to drive investors toward the burger chain and its shares.&nbsp;</p>



<p><a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2024/08/06/markets-are-counting-on-the-fed-to-head-off-recession-with-sizeable-interest-rate-cuts.html">Rate cuts are coming,</a> and they should help the company, which has dealt with <a href="https://stockanalysis.com/stocks/wen/financials/">rising interest payments</a> over the few past years.&nbsp;</p>



<p>Finally, and perhaps most importantly, Wendy&rsquo;s stock includes a dividend yielding 5.84%. The company has grown that dividend by <a href="https://www.gurufocus.com/stock/WEN/dividend">nearly 20%</a> over the past five years, so management is focused on rewarding shareholders.&nbsp;</p>



<h2>Keurig Dr Pepper (KDP)</h2>



<div><img width="300" height="169" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/kdp1600-300x169.jpg" alt="Keurig Dr Pepper (KDP) sign on the front of a building"><div>Source: Shutterstock</div></div><p><strong>Keurig Dr Pepper</strong> (NASDAQ:<span><a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/kdp-stock-quote/"><strong>KDP</strong></a></span>) stock may just be the new <strong>Coca-Cola</strong> (NYSE:<span><a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/ko-stock-quote/"><strong>KO</strong></a></span>).&nbsp;</p>



<p>Investors almost instinctively flock to Coca-Cola as a well-known defensive juggernaut when market troubles arise. The company long ago became an earnings machine. It has remained so and continues to reward shareholders through thick and thin.&nbsp;</p>



<p>Whenever I write about Coca-Cola, I refer to its excellent <a href="https://www.gurufocus.com/term/gross-margin/KO">gross margins</a> as proof that the company enjoys a strong economic mode through pricing premiums. Keurig Dr Pepper is not far behind Coca-Cola in that regard. Its <a href="https://www.gurufocus.com/term/gross-margin/KDP">gross margins are nearly as high,</a> suggesting similar durable competitive advantages.</p>



<p>KDP <a href="https://www.gurufocus.com/term/pettm/KDP">shares are priced correctly</a> at the moment. That should reassure investors who have balked at frothy valuations led by the share price growth in leading tech firms.</p>



<p>Keurig Dr Pepper doesn&rsquo;t have the same track record as Coca-Cola when it comes to dividends. However, what KDP shares lack there, they make up for in growth potential. The dividend itself adds a 2.5% buffer against current market volatility.&nbsp;</p>



<h2>Invitation Homes (INVH)</h2>



<div><img width="300" height="169" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/reits1600c-300x169.jpg" alt="tiny house figures atop letter blocks spelling out REIT, representing reits to buy. stock predictions. best REITs"><div>Source: Shutterstock</div></div><p><strong>Invitation Homes</strong> (NYSE:<span><a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/invh-stock-quote/"><strong>INVH</strong></a></span>) is a single-family residential REIT with a stock worth considering for investors.&nbsp;</p>



<p>It&rsquo;s a safe haven stock for several reasons. It provides a dividend yielding 3.14%. Again, that&rsquo;s a strong buffer against current turmoil that has seen the markets lose several percentage points on multiple days.&nbsp;</p>



<p>That&rsquo;s far from the only reason to consider INVH shares. Revenues have grown steadily in the 8% to 10% range over the past few years. Net income growth, too, has been strong over that time frame.&nbsp;</p>



<p>However, I&rsquo;d point potential investors to the effects of upcoming rate cuts as a major factor for potential investors. The company&rsquo;s interest expenses have been rising steadily and should fall as rate cuts are implemented. That isn&rsquo;t to say INVH is in any trouble currently. Its dividend looks quite safe based on <a href="https://stockanalysis.com/stocks/invh/financials/">FFO payout ratios below 70%.</a>&nbsp;</p>



<p>The firm&rsquo;s fundamentals &mdash; already sound &mdash; should continue to improve as the positive effects of rate cuts hit.&nbsp;</p>



<h2>Rexford Industrial Realty (REXR)</h2>



<div><img width="300" height="165" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/03/california-300x165.jpg" alt=""><div>Source: Shutterstock</div></div><p>Let&rsquo;s look at another REIT stock in a different sector,<strong> Rexford Industrial Realty</strong> (NYSE:<span><a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/rexr-stock-quote/"><strong>REXR</strong></a></span>). This company develops infill industrial properties in Southern California.&nbsp;</p>



<p>The term infill industrial properties refers to demolishing older industrial properties and replacing them with new facilities. The company believes it has cornered the world&rsquo;s fourth-largest industrial market, which it qualifies as having the highest demand with the lowest supply nationwide.&nbsp;</p>



<p>The company&rsquo;s portfolio spans 371 properties, covering approximately 45 million square feet of rentable space.</p>



<p>With any sort of REIT investment, investors should immediately look at the dividend and its suitability. Yield and risk are primary factors any investor must consider. Rexford Industrial Realty&rsquo;s dividend yields 3.4%. As a REIT, investors have to look at FFO payout ratios to determine whether to expect continuous payments. Rexford Industrial Realty boasts an FFO payout ratio In the 55% to 70% range, which is considered healthy.</p>



<p>The company is <a href="https://stockanalysis.com/stocks/rexr/financials/">undoubtedly booming from a top and bottom-line</a> perspective and deserves investor attention, especially in these volatile times.</p>



<h2>Coca-Cola FEMSA (KOF)</h2>



<div><img width="300" height="169" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/coca-cola-1600-300x169.jpg" alt="Can of Coca-Cola, a carbonated soft drink manufactured by The Coca-Cola Company headquartered in Atlanta, Georgia, USA"><div>Source: monticello / Shutterstock</div></div><p><strong>Coca-Cola FEMSA</strong> (NYSE:<span><a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/kof-stock-quote/"><strong>KOF</strong></a></span>) is the franchise bottler for Coca-Cola serving Mexico, Nicaragua, Guatemala, Costa Rica, Panama, Colombia, Brazil, Argentina and Uruguay. The stock offers a few advantages over its parent, including a <a href="https://stockanalysis.com/stocks/kof/dividend/">dividend yielding</a> 3.81% currently. That&rsquo;s a full 1% higher than the dividend available through KO shares.&nbsp;</p>



<p>Coca-Cola FEMSA last reduced its dividend in <a href="https://www.gurufocus.com/stock/KOF/dividend">2018.</a> Coca-Cola hasn&rsquo;t reduced its dividend since <a href="https://www.gurufocus.com/stock/KO/dividend">1963.</a> KO is clearly less risky, but for that relative safety, investors give up 1% in returns. It&rsquo;s something to think about.&nbsp;</p>



<p>Regardless, Coca-Cola FEMSA is growing healthily. Revenues grew by 12.7% during the first 6 months of 2024. Meanwhile, <a href="https://coca-colafemsa.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/Coca-Cola-FEMSA-Results-2Q24.pdf">net income increased by nearly 20%</a> over the same time frame.</p>



<p>To be honest, both Coca-Cola and Coca-Cola FEMSA make strong investments as recession fears grip Wall Street. One key differentiating factor, dividend yield aside, is that Coca-Cola FEMSA has much more <a href="https://stockanalysis.com/stocks/kof/forecast/">upside potential</a> at the moment.</p>



<h2>Unum Group (UNM)</h2>



<div><img width="300" height="169" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/unm-stock-1-300x169.jpg" alt="A photo of the Unum logo though a looking glass"><div>Source: Casimiro PT / Shutterstock.com</div></div><p><strong>Unum Group</strong> (NYSE:<span><a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/unm-stock-quote/"><strong>UNM</strong></a></span>) is a large insurance firm currently trading near target price lows. Let&rsquo;s start with some quick arithmetic that suggests it&rsquo;s a good investment.&nbsp;</p>



<p>Unum Group&rsquo;s consensus <a href="https://stockanalysis.com/stocks/unm/forecast/">target price</a> is $61.50 and trades for $52.80 as I write this. The dividend pays $1.68 annually. That equates to more than a 19% upside in the base case scenario. Remember, UNM shares are steady overall and have continued to grow consistently following the initial onset of the pandemic.&nbsp;</p>



<p>Although Unum Group&rsquo;s earnings have shrunk over the past 12 months, the stock&rsquo;s <a href="https://www.gurufocus.com/term/pettm/UNM">P/E ratio</a> is still attractive. The company has undertaken a large share <a href="https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/unum-group-reports-second-quarter-2024-results-302210286.html">buyback program</a> and is distributing earnings to shareholders.&nbsp;</p>



<p>Generally speaking, Insurance firms are safe haven stocks in times of market volatility. They tend to not move as violently as other stocks and have lower betas. They usually preserve capital better for that reason. Additionally, Unum and others like it provide dividend income, in its case 3.13%, further buffering against potential downturns.</p>



<h2>Richmond Mutual Bancorporation (RMBI)</h2>



<div><img width="300" height="169" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/bank-stocks-1600-300x169.jpg" alt="bank customer sliding money to teller at bank desk. promising bank stocks"><div>Source: Syda Productions / Shutterstock.com</div></div><p><strong>Richmond Mutual Bancorporation</strong> (NASDAQ:<span><a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/rmbi-stock-quote/"><strong>RMBI</strong></a></span>) is a regional bank with a stock income investors will like.&nbsp;</p>



<p>That stock includes a dividend yielding 4.57% presently. The dividend has a healthy payout ratio below 0.7 and was last reduced in 2020. It appears safe overall.</p>



<p>Richmond Mutual Bancorporation is similar to most banks in terms of leverage. The company holds roughly $10 of liabilities for every $1 of shareholder equity. Banks tend to be highly leveraged and borrow tremendous amounts of money, which is then loaned back out. Banks make money on the spread between the borrowing rate and lending rate. Anyway, Richmond Mutual Bancorporation is relatively average in that regard. It isn&rsquo;t over-leveraged.</p>



<p>Like all other banks, RMBI should do well soon due to expected rate cuts. Those cuts should allow the company to improve its spread while lowering borrowing costs and overall risk. All of those factors together make RMBI shares ones to consider.</p>
