A Random Walk In The Park On A Monday Morning. A Caution. Monday Mornings Are Often Not An Option Players Best Friend

Let's start with this. It's now 10:26 a.m. A bet on Caterpillar rebounding by the end of the week. There are no takers. Why have to watch the screen for the next four days in agony waiting for a rebound which if happens is just a "break even trade"? But Wait. I made a mistake. The market is actually now down 668 points. What else can we look at? Interactive Brokers. These kind of stocks always do poorly on days with the threat of margin calls. Yet there is something interesting about the printout I am about to show. It is that these options are "one-month-out" Calls. These longer term options trade differently than short term options. (these options trade in one month intervals). If the stock we are following stops it's freefall the value of the options will nudge up ten, fifteen or twenty percent.

Strong Days for The Electric Vehicle Stocks - Well Not Really

Here is a one day printout of some of the electric vehicle stocks I watch. Notice their fifty-two week highs. Many of these stocks are trading near their lows. About six weeks ago many of these stocks were out of fashion based on the thinkings that the batteries they are running on are depleting the world of precious metals and will be difficult to dispose of. Yet consumers still want to go electric and a few companies had good news. Lordstown Motors (Ride) had good news. A year ago a Tiawan company bought their factory and this week that same company (Foxconn) invested more money in them. More details about this follows below. Lucid had good news. A Saudi public investment fund is its majority shareholder, and committed to putting in more cash this past week. Rivian's $32 billion market cap and Lucid's $22 billion market cap suggest that investors think they'll make it. Nikola has a market cap of just over $1 billion, its own truck plant, and $400 millian in cash, enough to get them through 2023.
Then there is Sono Motors. I have talked about them before. Their stock has recently tanked.
Yet the stock jumped on Friday.
What's going on with Sono? Whoppie Goldburg says that she likes them and wants one.
Now more about Fisker.
Fisker is abut to start production but Magna International (MGA) will handle their production. Pick a few of these companies and sign up to their mailing lists. There is so much to learn about.
