Avis Budget and A Short Squeeze Plus Hertz Getting Dragged Into The Action

Hertz Global is on a terror. . Stocks in the $5.00 range sometimes do that. Yet really it's the Avis Budget short squeeze that is causing this stir. Look at how it jumped just over $105.00 dollars today. How often do you see a chart like this? It's a short squeeze and the stock is trading on high daily volumes. At one point this morning (a Tuesday) there was a "stop trading" on it. Trading options on it defies logic as they are so expensive. Look at this one example. These are the 700 series of Calls and the stock is only trading at 11:17 a.m. at $665.00. In other words they are $35.000 "out-of-the-money". Look at how crazy expensive they are. The stock would have to jump $105.00 or one hundred and five dollars by the end of the week just to break even! Who would be crazy enough to make such a bet? Day traders would be because they are banking on the effects caused by the stocks interday momentum. Let me explain this better by showing you an end of day re...

This post is easy to write. It's also something skeptics of option trading should read. Look at how all on the options exploded on this one. Here is why. Both of these articles were from Nov26th and 27th. Why the time delay in having this stock pop is something I don't understand. Back on Sept 5th and Oct 27th I did I blogs on this stock. Go back and read them. Both times I ended these blogs by saying "Do your homework on this one". Read my blogs about playing options on $5.00 stocks. Here now is how Vinfast closed the day. Now look at how the five series of Calls closed on December 5th (with only one trading day of life left in them). Profits on options on five dollar stocks come and go quickly. Here is a quick look at another company with $5.00 options that expire tommorow which had a few hours of glory in the last two hours of trading today. AMC Entertainment. *** The AMC story is complicated and the stock price is manipulated. These three snippents tell par...
