Coronavirus (COVID-19) Update: YES Strategy Is Vulnerable To Losses Now Markets Are Rough

The World Health Organization (WHO) has just declared the coronavirus a pandemic, with the United States President Donald Trump announcing a travel ban involving more than two dozen nations. As if these health concerns weren’t bad enough, the latest Coronavirus update has also placed the markets in a panic. Dow Jones dropped by thousands of points and the S&P 500 index has also taken a dive.

While the stock markets do typically rebound after a sharp plunge, we are currently living in uncertain times due to COVID-19. As one Bank of America Merrill Lynch report cited in a Reuters article, the coronavirus is the type of “slow-moving train wreck” in which the market “slowly and progressively” realizes its “magnitude.”

UBS Financial Services (UBS) brokers Matthew Buchsbaum and Scott Rosenberg are currently the subjects of multiple investor fraud claims by firm clients who blame them for losses they sustained from the UBS YES Strategy. This Yield Enhancement Strategy (YES) is a complex investment strategy and it is not suitable for every investor.

Involving an options overlay strategy, the UBS YES Strategy uses four options having the same expiration date but different strike prices. It employs the strategic buying and selling of SPX options spreads.

UBS YES Strategy investors were told to expect “incremental returns” along with the chance to earn income through low yield assets.
