RNF: 7.8% return in 17 days (167% annualized)

I posted my research on RNF, a few weeks ago.  I wrote a covered call on 6/2/15, with a strike of $15 and expiry on 6/19/15.  Funny, RNF traded right at $15 at the closing on 6/19/15.  I was on my way to Philly on 6/19/15.  I didn’t expect RNF to go up 6.3% on one day.  But lucky me, RNF stopped right at $15, 5 pennies shy of being called away (I like this stock and don’t want it called away).  As a result, 17 days gave me 7.8% return (annualized to be 167%).  The news was that the analysts expect RNF’s dividend to more than double (from .30s to .60s) for this quarter ending 6/30/15.  I intend to sell another call against my holdings with an expiry to go beyond the earnings report date (to play safe).
