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. ...

Looking At One Week Price Swings !

This is a good market for price swings. Look at Boeing last week.
Boeing was up $12.63 on the week.Then there is Eli Lilly. It was up $28.44 last week.
The strange part is falling NYSE stocks outnumbered rising ones, 3-to-2. It is stated that the May job growth seemed to rule out a "near-term" rate cut. Look at the stock McDonalds. It was down $2.68 on the week. What a wild chart.
At the start of the year it was running up nicely on the theme they were adding new restaurants in the growing suburbs of every city in North America. Most recently the theme is that people can't afford to eat there. When sentiment changes looking for a rebound is never an exacting science. Look at Ford. It was up two cents last week and it was announced that sales last month were up 7%. If they are up again next month the stock might start to get noticed.
Had you purchased the 12 series Calls on Wednesday that expired that Friday you would have done well. Look at Nio. It was the third most activity traded stock on the NYSE last week. Ford was the fifth most activity traded stock on the same exchange. Nio often makes the top five list. Last week it dropped $.56 cents. That's a big drop on a stock in this price range.
It could come back up this week. Now look at First Solar. Look at it's one day chart last Friday!
Imagine catching Friday's one day Call options? Now look at it's one week chart. The stock was down $4.42 on the week.
On the wilder side,the "Blink" $3.00 series of Calls that expire this Friday closed last Friday at $.17. Playing options on stocks in this price range is a real crap shoot. See my June 4th blog I wrote about Chargepoint).
Here is it's first option trade of the week.
A 1:45p.m. same day update. The Ford 12 series of Calls has doubled.
Eli Lilly is up $9.61.
First Solar is up $14.41.
All during a period of time when the DJIA is only up 8 points so far on this day! *** Look at how the Blink Calls went on to gain over 50% in one day.
