Preparations of Next Week

I am starting to determine what adjustments to make to holdings that were not exercised: AA, ALL, AUY, BA, CAT, COST, CSCO, DD, DIG, GE, JPM, MSFT, UYG, WMT

I am also evaluating what to do with funds obtained from exercised positions. I am considering selling some ITM calls on positions that I could increase position if exercised (AA & AUY). I am also considering selling ITM puts on Cemex (CX). New positions of Verizon (VZ and YHOO) are also being considered.
