Another Blog On "Vinfast"

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. ...

Ffie - Electric Vehicles And an August 16 th and August 28th 2023 update.

See my December 12th blog about this stock. Here is today's action.
Look at the volume. 140 million shares traded. That kind of volume is going to show up on multiple tracking systems.
A March 7th update. It's now almost half price. Last week it was the tenth most actively traded stock on the Nasdaq by share volume. It's often on this list.Then again it was the second lowest priced stock on this list of twenty companies.
Read the news on it. Most of the electric car companies are now burning up cash except Telsa. It's not a fun business to be in during the start up phase.******** Now an August 2023 update. It's still going, not much has changed. They did sell one car. They made a video of the sale.
One sale will not pay the bills so now they added a new twist to things. Read their new job title. AI stuff. Stop.Stop. Stop. These are all junk stocks. Look at the volume, a lot of people seem to like to trade them. Trading volumes are always crazy high.That's one of the things that makes this stock somewhat unique.I don't like this stock because it's track record is not great and it's going need a lot of money to get to the next stage. If it does get there then there are still are are no gaurantees. It's always a high risk business.
The August 28th update. A reverse split had to be done.
This is a game changing move. All the penny stock traders are suddenly kicked out of the game. No longer are we going to see this name of the list of the most activity traded stocks. Remember Westport doing a 10 for 1 reverse stock split? It's tough going for any stock after that happens. **An August 28th update.
A 23% drop in one day is huge.

What does the word disconnect mean? As a verb it means "to sever or interrupt the connection of or between; detach". Option trading - one day options - is a disconnect from the world. What happens to slightly "out-of-the-money" Call options on Costco when the stock shoot up thirty dollars on the day? I will show you what happened on Friday to Costco Calls and the options on a few other stocks I frequently watch. What a disconnect from the real world. But before that a look at how the indexes traded. 1) Costco. It's five day chart and a look at how three of it's option series moved upwards in one day. You may not know how to read these printouts but try to read the highs and lows on these option pricings. One printout shows an "at-the-money" option which means you are buying a contract on the stock, good for one day only at a locked in price equal to (or very close to) what the stock is currently trading at. The other two contracts shown are ...

The Little Engine That Could

Walmart again. It's all I seem to blog about. Here is it's five day chart. The stock keeps going up and the option series are set up in one dollar spreads. Even a fifty cent move on the stock moves the needle on these Calls. Look at how this series of Calls was trading yesterday at 3:00 p.m.. Now here is this same series of Calls just before noon today. Thirty days of upward action like this punctuated by the off day of decline. Now notice the higher volume of trading in the series of Calls with the higher striking price. These are the ones's with more leverage. At the same time look at the five day chart on Costco. The two stocks sometimes trade in tandem. Humpty dumpty sat on a wall .... a had a great fall. Someday soon a fall might happen but what a great ride it has been.

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 slighty 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-mas...
