Lucid Disappoints Again

Let's start with a good news story back on July 22nd. That wasn't that long ago.
Now this news.
Remember the old days?
If you look at it's five day chart below you will see how the stock dropped on that news and opened stronger on the next two sessions. That should tell you something. I don't know what to think about all this. If it starts trading at $10.00 per share and sinks to $7.50 and then comes out with some crazy news like they did in July then the stage could be set for another rebound and if sales then start to go up they could come back to the markets to raise some additional money. That's a lot of ifs.
Let's watch the remainer of this week to see if the open interest in the January 2026 and 2027 $2.00 Calls continues to go up. Remember ten Calls will become one Call and the new striking price will be $10.00. What are visionaries now thinking?
To be continued. A Friday Sept.99th update at 12:50 p.m.. Now a look at the Jan17th 2026 Calls with a striking price of $2.00 to see if the volume in them has increased. Today is the last trading day before the planned reverse stock split. The volume is only up slightly.
Can you see how Lucid is trading at $1.99 in the early afternoon. They will most likely close the stock at $2.00 today to make the reverse stock split now scheduled for the next trading day easy. They didn't, they closed the stock at $1.98 and here is how it traded in the premarkets on September 2nd at it's new price.
They took a hit. Now this.
Here is Lucid's new chart on Monday morning. Yes traders bought in on the dip.
the action in these Calls don't seem to make sense.. what happened to all the volume? Why is the open interst number zero?
To be continued.

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 ...

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. ...
