Advance Auto Parts, Inc. AAP – We also were looking at the AAP chain following the company’s earnings beat yesterday. Our area of interest there was the AAP 06/21 $165-170 Calls, and those also fared extremely well. The $165’s ran from 5.25-9.00 for a 71% pop, and the $170’s traded up from a low of 3.00 and hit 5.80, an intraday upswing of 93%

With nearly a month remaining until expiration, and the stock still well below any areas of major resistance, we’ll be interested to continue tracking these plays.

Amplitech Group, Inc. AMPG

We have been tracking AMPG for roughly seven weeks now, and thought it was a good time to provide another update. Following our initial alert on the stock in the beginning of April, we observed a low of .043, and AMPG hasn’t looked back. We continued to pound the table as it has gradually ramped its way up, and yesterday it once again pressed its upper limits. The new high on this play is now .0699, which works out to a total rise of 63% in the time we’ve been covering AMPG.

We would also highly suggest our readers take the time to check out the following video on AMPG which offers an exclusive perspective on what makes this company and stock so attractive. We took a hard line on deeming the stock to be undervalued when we started, and have been vindicated as the market has shown itself to agreee with us. This video goes into a bit more depth on that.
