Mid Week Morning Option Trading . Apple

Apple moves up in the first hour of trading on a Wednesday. Are there reasons now to be looking at it's Puts? Well with computer generated trading the 10:00 a.m. time period might magically click in to be a "time-of-a-reversal". We are two minutes away from that happening at 10:00 a.m.. Let's check back in twenty five minutes to see what happens. The small upward spike on top of an initial spike did not hold. That's the way I see it anyways.The 10:00 a.m. trading mark was a speed bump that served to change the upward projectory of this stock. Now a revisit to this situation twenty minutes later. Apple shed these worries. With "last day to expiring options" the 10:00 a.m. morning time period is often fraught with worries. That's just the way it is. Now let's focus in on this actionjust minutes before the 3:00 p.m. option expiracy deadline. Are you starting to understand the power of mid week option trading?

Will Fisker Survive?

Maybe. They have whimical t.v. commercials. I want one, but why they make claims to using recylicable materials in their vehicles is something I don't totally understand. Here is it's 5 year, 30 day and 5 day chart.
Image buying near the top and then averaging down? What a mess for existing shareholders. So what is happening now? Auto Trader in Canada has two used one's for sale. If the company goes under will replacement parts be available?
Fisker now needs more $$$$ to survive. Is the next step finding a partner and / or issuing more shares? Their product lines are strikingly beautiful and their name does have some brand recognition.Yet there is a big probem.
A loss last year of $762 million. That's a crazy big chunk of money. How did they get themselves in such a big mess? Now with the added bad publicity of potentially going bankrupt the path forward is even that much more difficult. .
Miracles have happened. Look at how Canoo, another struggling E.V. maker regained some ground this week.
Now this. Fisker Call options. They are pretty stupid to be looking at given that a drastic reverse stock split is probably imminent. Look at what happened to Faraday Future Intelligent Electric Inc.
A one week pop the $.30 cent level would make these options double. (You can't go any further out that September Calls). Might Fisker rebound to $.30 cents per share? It was there only a few days ago. Guess what? It's not worth the risk. So what even if it does. The real money was made in shorting it months ago. Stick to Caterpillar Calls and Puts. Caterpillar is not going to go away anytime soon. ** A March 18th 9:28 a.m. update.
