Wednesday 19 Feb 2025 Morning Notes

I wasn't around at all yesterday, but I closed out my KLG puts I had picked up Friday afternoon after some takeover rumor sent the stock up 15%. The IV for the Feb 20 puts was pretty cheap, so I picked up a bunch. Closed it for a +270% gain. It helped that both CAG and GIS dropped on the open, otherwise my return probably would have been half that. Also worth noting that my return would have been better if there was any amount of liquidity in the options. Had considered locking in gains by purchasing stock, but ultimately vetoed that idea.

Yesterday AMC: ANET, BMBL, DVN, OXY, EQT, SPR TOL, XP,
Today BMO: ADI, ETSY, HSBC, SEDG

Other News: CELH pulls forward its earnings date. The options market had it pegged for next week, however it's announcing earnings on Thursday. This is going to be the vol setup of the day, for sure.

Follow through names to watch: INTC, SMCI, CAG, GIS
