What's Going On With Google?

It's Wednesday. .... Now this. But wait. Look at how it's one day chart changed over the next few hours. I took a couple of hours away from the market to go swimming and I missed much of the downward action. Here is another chart showing how these Puts just traded. They went from $350.00 to $708.00 at 12:35 p.m. in less than an hour! I wrote a similiar blog about Google moving like this ( one day short term trades ) back on January 13th. Trumph has a way making statements which then moves the markets. The strenght this afternoon comes from statements he is not going to put tariffs on Greenland. What we now has is a market ripe for extreme daytrading.

Polestar Tumbles After A Reverse Stock Split.

Here is this mornings chart.
There is a bit of a technical glitch in the Calls and the Puts with no open interest numbers and impossible bid and ask numbers.
When you look out further to January options you will see that the situation remains the same.
When you see a chart like this it's best just to stay away. I will do an update later when the interest in these options get sorted out. The company continues to lose money. Polestar later in the day. This was a 1-for-30 reverse stock split.
Polestar continued to drop on the following day.
** Now a December 28th update.
They continue to advertise heavily on football gaames. Have they learned anything from their past mistakes? How did they turn things around?

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...

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 ...

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. ...
