Analysis

CMCSA (Comcast Corporation - Class A Common Stock) presents a short put opportunity with very elevated implied volatility. IV Rank 88. IV 4150.0% trades 1889.0pp above 30-day HV (2261.0%). This setup favors net premium sellers.

Sell the $20 put for $0.29 credit. Naked single-leg exposure; collect premium from time decay if CMCSA stays above the strike. Underlying ~$20.66, 32 DTE. Max profit $29 per contract, max loss $1971, 1.5% return on risk, 81% POP. Breakeven at $19.71.
