Exercised Positions - USO, BA, PRU, TRA

Four positions were exercised after close Friday. Two had been sold ITM and two ATM on the OTM side. Alot of my positions closed very near to the money so should offer good CC returns for Feb. I will be spending the seekend and Monday making decisions on open positions. TRA that was called jumped in value greatly because of a buy out offer. It will require some thought to determine if I desire to reenter it as a position for Feb.
