A Look At "The Bids And Asks" On Two Different Series Of Put Options That Expire In A Few Hours

On July 3th the markets were closing at 1:00 p.m. with July 4th also being a holiday. Many traders were disconnected from the markets. It is holiday time. Let's look at these two different option series. 1) Boeing. It jumped up in price over $4.00 in early market trading. Boeing does that sometimes on Fridays. It's 10:15 a.m. and here are the slightly "out-of-the-money" $215.00 series of Puts which are just over $1.00 "out-of-the-money". The stock is at $216.21. These Puts expire in less than three hours. If Boeing started to give back some of it's gains these Puts could be worth big money.The stock is at $216.21 and the striking price of $215.00 isn't really all that far away. Look at how cheap these Puts have suddenly become. What ended up happening? Here is a summary of how Boeing end up trading on the day. Boeing never ended up selling off to below the $215.00 price range. The 215 Puts ended up expiring worthless. *** There was other ac...

Pension Funds and EV Stocks - A Need To Be Part Of The Action

Pension funds invest in EV stocks. Currently Lucid is 81% owned by institutions and 4% insiders. Rivian is 63% owned by institutions and 12% insiders. It's not the average guy on the street who own these two stocks. What do institutional investors know about stocks in this sector that we don't? Tesla is 44% owned by institutions and 13% by insiders. Workhorse is 33% owned by institutions and 4% insiders. In contrast Polestar is only 4% owned by institutions and 47% by insiders. Lucid and Rivian are both up and running with production output. For this reason they both seem to be gaurishing an inordinate amount of attention. Please now read this. After you finish reading this I will tell you what I think.
It seems to me that institutions are out in the garden patch whimically putting EV stocks into their basket. What a dangerous voyage of discovery. Yet what floats the boat is Tesla which has had a wonderful run. The scary part is that this stock has a P/E ratio of 71:80-1. The boat will continue to float as long as consumers continue go electric. It looks like things are headed in that direction. England for example has the goal to ban the sale of all new petrol and diesel vehicles by 2030. Now for a reality check. Look at how these six EV stocks traded this week. What a scrubbing!
The charging station evolution is just as crazy with pension fund money also following the action. This weeks downward action across the board was abnormal.
