CC Score optimizes for income generation, not total return. Covered calls cap upside — stocks that rally strongly will underperform a buy-and-hold approach. Past CC returns do not predict future yields.
Every covered call strike sorted by CC Score. Higher score = better risk-adjusted income potential.

*Annualized yield assumes hold to expiration with no early assignment. Actual results may vary.
Weekly covered calls (7–14 DTE) offer faster theta decay and more flexibility but require active management. Monthly covered calls (30–45 DTE) balance time premium with less frequent rolling. For ON Semiconductor, consider monthlies to collect more total premium per cycle. The CC Score ranks both DTE ranges so you can compare directly.
The primary risk is capped upside: if ON Semiconductor rallies sharply, you are obligated to sell at the strike price and miss gains above it. At the current top-ranked $70 strike (10.5% OTM), any rally beyond that level means you sell shares below market price. To contextualize: covered calls are best suited for sideways-to-mildly-bullish outlooks. If you expect a significant move higher, consider waiting to sell the call or using a wider strike. The CC Score penalizes strikes with elevated event risk to help you avoid the worst setups.
ON Semiconductor's IV Rank is 25%, which is relatively low. Premiums may be thin. Consider waiting for IV to rise, using shorter DTE to maintain adequate annualized returns, or moving closer to the money if you are comfortable with the assignment risk.
ON Semiconductor's top covered call shows 35.1% annualized. High annualized returns typically result from elevated IV, shorter DTE (which amplifies annualization), or closer-to-the-money strikes. Always check the CC Score — it penalizes strikes with poor liquidity or excessive event risk that may inflate the headline yield.
