Drone Stocks Are On A Terror

Yet things may not end all that well. It's the insiders who are having the rides of their life. Let me briefly explain. Here are three of the most popular drone stocks I follow, in no particular order. Note this about Unusual Machines, Donald Trumph Junior works for them. All have doubled in price in the last six months and none of them are really making any money. That's the problem but it gets even scarier when we look at the second teir of players in this space. Look at these three companies.. Short term option traders have made a killing on this ones - so far. It always has news... they all do to help sell the hype. Do any of these companies make any money? Draganfly has like 13,967,978 shares outstanding and warrants. Now look at this. (Dragonfly Energy Holding is a different company than Dragon Inc.). All I am trying to say companies all over the world make drones. There is really nothing special about any of these companies. Investing in any of these companies is to...

Costco Is Flat In The Last Five Days.

Well it's actually had a couple of ten or fifteen dollars dips. Can you play it? Some would say why would you want to? If you look at the open interest in these two series of options below you will see that not many players want to. That in a sense that is a good thing. Here are two option series to look at. First the Calls that are set to expire this Friday.
Now the Puts which are also expiring this Friday.
Now here is it's chart a 10:05 a.m.
If your looking for me to make some brillant comment as to what is going to happen next you might be in for a disapointment. All I want to say is that the markets had a bad day yesterday and the 980 series of Calls almost doubled in price on that day. My point is that these options have the potential (Tuesday options that expire on Friday) to make amazing moves. For example in a past blogs I wrote about Costco on March 7th this stock was down $69.60 on the day as I was writing about it! I have strong repect for these options. Recent past blogs about this stock include title like "Costco Can Move" and "Costco Again, One Of The Most Explosive Stocks For Option Trading". In a June 5th blog I did on Costco I talked about buying Puts on Costco three days out and fifteen dollars "out-of-the-money"! They ended up going from $450.00 to $675.00 in a ninety two minute period of time. Yes these options can move. To be continued. Here now is what happened to the 990 Calls and the 990 Puts at the end of the day. When playing one week options Tuesday mornings are not a good time to be looking for the upside.
To be continued. Now Tuesday.
Can you see how these options can be traded almost hour to hour? To be continued. Now a Friday end of week look. First the 990 Calls.
Now the 990 series of Puts at the end of the week. They were at $9.90 a few days back.
* NYSE breadth fell for the first time in seven weeks.

A Fireside Chat - One Year Options and Thirty Day Options. Which is Better?

Image
Some say to think small, not big. Trying to play Disney options is thinking big. It is a stock slightly out of favor. If we start with it's a three year chart, we will see it is down by about 50% over that period of time. Now it's one year chart. If the stock can break 110 in early 2024 the sky is the limit. It does have a lot of moving parts so anything could happen. Look at these Calls options one year out. One year in options buys a lot of time.They look reasonable. If the stock ever inched up to the $105.00 price level in the three or four months these options would jump up in price by about 50%. Even more if they had really good news. Yet it's the "what-if" aspect of the equation that castes such a trade in doubt. "What if" stories just don't cut it. There are to many variables in play. Then again, why are we even thinking of long-term Call options after a December's rally? Let's switch gears. If consumers are out spending for X-ma...

Another Blog On "Vinfast"

Image
There is so much to read about this companies history online. Do your own homework. Their success is not dependent on what ends up happening with their sales in North America. They are nimble. There are plenty of auto factories all over the world now for sale they can acquire. They have dabbled in Australia. Having access to money to keep going doesn't seem to be their problem. Rivian also seems to enjoy this advantage. Vinfast is currently building a new plant in India which could employ thousands of people. That's an emerging new market. New relationships are being built and new investors will be coming onboard. Are option players looking at this stock? Not really if we look at these "one-month-out" Calls. What about Calls further out? What about next January? Here is a look at the three and four series of Calls. Nobody seems willing to bet Vinfast Calls. Now this. Here are two snippets taken from a blog I wrote about this stock back in early December of 2024. ...

Waiting For A Drop On The Opening On Bad News - Eli Lilly

Image
Here is the bad news. The company is Eli Lilly. How bad is this news? Well look at it trading in the premarkets. So what do I think? I think the news is a setback of sorts, but not really all that bad. The stock is going to open lower, that's a given. It's like trying to play Boeing after an announcement that an airplane has crashed. So the stock is going to crash and it might have a small rebound and then it's going to slide down some more. A test of sorts will happen sometime in the afternoon. It might stock falling but then where will it go from there? The best case scenario is a recognition that investors got it all wrong and the stock ends up flat on the day. Yet there might be more of a downward dumping of the stock on the close followed by a selloff on tomorrows opening. Should option players be jumping in to play the upside on next week's Calls? That is the question. Here is a look at Boeing on the days after a crash. Day two after the crash was equally as ...
