"If we get a significant bump tomorrow, I'll strongly consider selling some calls against a small percentage of my shares"

Baba, many on here have been doing exactly what you just wrote , sell after news, buy back cheaper later, and it's worked for years and years.

Hopefully I have some really bad news for you! One day, you going to give away those shares to cover those calls, and it's going to be a bad burn for you, fortunately for you, hasn't happened yet, but don't worry Baba, your day and all those who've played this game will be on the sidelines crying the blues soon enough. 

Just my take on what you've been doing for years around here.
