The trader's response—"Because I also have a pretty large premium sold at 400 cc"—refers to an existing open position where he sold **covered calls** (CC) at the $400 strike on shares he already owns, collecting a substantial premium upfront when he opened that trade.

### Context from recent AVGO price action
AVGO was trading around $400–406 just days/weeks ago (pre-earnings peak), then dropped sharply (~10–12% post-earnings reaction, now around $360 as of Dec 15, 2025). Selling a $400 covered call when the stock was near or above that level would indeed yield a **pretty large premium** (higher when closer to/at-the-money and/or with elevated volatility).

### Why this explains selling the Jan 16, 2026 $350 put now
- **Income layering & lowered cost basis** — The large premium already banked from the $400 CC significantly reduces his effective cost basis on his current shares. This makes him very comfortable adding more shares via put assignment at $350 (net even lower after put premium), as his overall position remains highly profitable/yielding.
- **Complementary wheel-style strategy** — He's likely running a variation of the wheel: holding shares → selling OTM covered calls for income → if not called away, repeat or sell lower puts to acquire more shares cheaply during dips. The "large premium" from the higher-strike CC (sold at better levels) cushions the position and generates strong yield if the stock recovers but stays below $400 (calls expire worthless).
- **Bullish conviction with income focus** — The existing CC premium reflects confidence in upside (capped at $400 + premium, a great exit if hit), while the new $350 put adds downside income and a planned accumulation point. If AVGO rebounds moderately → keep both premiums. If it stays weak → assign more shares cheaply to restart/sell future CCs higher.
- **Risk management** — With the $400 CC now far OTM (low assignment risk post-drop), his shares are "safe" for now, freeing capital/margin to sell cash-secured puts lower without overexposure.

Overall, it's a pro-level income maximization play on a stock he likes long-term (strong AI/semiconductor fundamentals). The large $400 CC premium is the "because"—it makes the total setup highly attractive, turning volatility into compounded yield while scaling the position opportunistically. Smart if executed with proper sizing.
