Looking for Unusual Experiences. "BigBear".

There is a little stock that has recently started to gain an inordinate amount of attention. It trades millions of shares per day and I recently started blogging about it. It's price changes on a daily basis can be dramatic. Here once again are it's details. Now it's thirty day and five day chart. Option players playing one week options on this stock are getting wild rides. Look at this, today's one day chart. Now look at today's Puts. It's one day, six series of Puts on it traded at a low of $.03 cents in the morning and then shot up in the afternoon. $.35 cents was the high. Is there any point in taking this stock seriously and tracking how it's options are trading? Usually I would say not really however when I see millions of shares trading everyday I know that millions of Americans who can trade commission free can glue themselves to their computer screens and play like these these options all day long enjoying these two and three and ten cent price...

Ford - An Earning Report

Image
Ford is going electric, that's the buzz. We all know the story. Earnings just came out on the stock and the Call options jumped on the opening. If you were playing options you had to get out just after the opening. With option plays on earning reports that's usually the way to best way play them. First, I will show the prior day's action. There was a gap down on the opening and 94 million shares traded. That's a large number. People were cashing out after recent good times. Now here is a chart of Ford the next day and here is how two option series traded. Buy in at the close and sell out just after the opening. Look at how high each series traded up to just after the opening. The earning numbers were not all that great but it's the buzz about going electric. Ford is one of the better stocks out there to play earning report releases. ** Scroll up to the upper left and read my most recent blog on MacDonald's earning report.

McDonald's And An Earnings Report

Image
I was sitting in the drive through line yesterday at McDonalds redeeming a free coffee sticker won from being there a few days prior. It was a long line up for mid-afternoon. I am not a fast food junkie. I found myself thinking of how the Domino Pizza stock was on a terror for much of last year but not so much now. When we were all locked in last year everyone was ordering their pizza. I was also wondered if they would now accept my little free coffee sticker as it was only thumbnail size. Then when I pulled up to the drive thru window I hit a patch of bees. Apparently for whatever reason they were enjoying being at that window. They gave me my free coffee. Boy it was busy there. I note in this option series that there were only 292 open contracts. That small number suprises me. Why didn't more option players see this coming?
