• Imagine you are a retiree from this company and received stock as part of your pension
package benefit. What would you do with the shares to earn extra money above the
dividends?
• If I were a retiree from Nike, I would make money just by holding for a good
price before selling the stock. d As a retiree, I would play around with options
because they would be too risky if this money is needed during retirement.
• Currently the stock is going up, so I would lock-in that increase by selling
the shares at a price that would make some capital gain.
