Costco. It's Short Term Options

 Options on stocks in the $1,000  range often move  50%  or more in only a matter of  minutes on the opening on Wednesday and Thursday's . The trick is to  anticipate correctly which way the markets are going to move. That's a fools game you might say? Yes and no. It may not be a game you ever play but it might be something to consider to put in your bag of tricks when you are on a role. One thousand dollar stocks sometimes move five, ten or fifteen dollars on the day. If you have profits it's best to take them quickly. Costco is a prime example of that. Let's look at this mornings action. First it's five day and one day charts. Tuesday's trading was kind of choppy. Might it drop on the opening tomorrow? Here is a look at where the 1,035 series of Puts closed that expire this Friday. They closed at $8.50. It looks like Costco cycled up about five times yesterday.

Deere Lays Off /Tesla / Eli Lilly/ Home Depot/ Nio

It was announced today, a Tuesday that Deere is going to lay off some of it's workers. Perhaps that news was leaked out last Friday and that's why it could have sold off last Friday afternoon.

But then there is this background news.
Now this. Talk of a hurricane. Will Home Depot go up?
Then there is Nio. It's shares trade huge volumes and the stock has a wide following. Might it trade back up to $6.00?
It's down almost half price on the year. One of the problems in trying to anticipate what might happen to it's share price movement is that we don't really understand the dynamics of their markets.Nor do we understand in North America how quickly China is going electric.
China continues to grow it's E.V. numbers. Visit the NIO website. *Now this. Chatter about the future of E.V's. This time it's a Ford executive talking about it's state of affairs.
Ford executives have a history of confusing their shareholders.
