Solid Underlying Growth in NA and EU Engineered Components Segments
The most recent short interest data has been released for the 02/15/2018 settlement date, which shows a 690,071 share decrease in total short interest for Quanex Building Products Corp , to 1,129,892, a decrease of 37.92% since 01/31/2018. Total short interest is just one way to look at short data; another metric that we here at Dividend Channel find particularly useful is the "days to cover" metric because it considers both the total shares short and the average daily volume of shares traded.
Investors considering a purchase of Quanex Building Products Corp stock, but cautious about paying the going market price of $17.30/share, might benefit from considering selling puts among the alternative strategies at their disposal. One interesting put contract in particular, is the September put at the $12.50 strike, which has a bid at the time of this writing of 40 cents.

Looking at the universe of stocks we cover at Dividend Channel, on 6/13/17, Quanex Building Products Corp will trade ex-dividend, for its quarterly dividend of $0.04, payable on 6/30/17. As a percentage of NX's recent stock price of $20.40, this dividend works out to approximately 0.20%.
Shareholders of Quanex Building Products Corp looking to boost their income beyond the stock's 0.8% annualized dividend yield can sell the December covered call at the $22.50 strike and collect the premium based on the $1.05 bid, which annualizes to an additional 8.6% rate of return against the current stock price (at Stock Options Channel we call this the YieldBoost), for a total of 9.4% annualized rate in the scenario where the stock is not called away. Any upside above $22.50 would be lost if the stock rises there and is called away, but NX shares would have to advance 10.8% from current levels for that to happen, meaning that in the scenario where the stock is called, the shareholder has earned a 16% return from this trading level, in addition to any dividends collected before the stock was called.
Looking at the universe of stocks we cover at Dividend Channel, on 3/15/17, Quanex Building Products Corp will trade ex-dividend, for its quarterly dividend of $0.04, payable on 3/31/17. As a percentage of NX's recent stock price of $19.50, this dividend works out to approximately 0.21%.
