SMPL Update, Form-4 Alert


The Simply Good Foods Co. SMPL – 
Options Review 
.
On Thursday morning, SMPL was among the fresh options trading targets that we had mentioned in our premarket report.  We were looking specifically at the SMPL 08/21 $20-22.50 Calls.

Despite it being one of our relatively rare longer-term swing-trade ideas, with tons of time remaining until expiration, we did see some early gains right off the bat from those plays as the week drew to a close.

08/21 $20-22.50 Calls
$20: 1.50-2.20 (+47%)
$22.50: .70-1.30 (+86%)

We’ll certainly continue to have these targets on watch in the weeks and months ahead, it was good to see some instantaneous opportunity arise.

AxoGen Inc. AXGN – Form-4 Alert

We would also like to make mention of AXGN this morning. which we caught sight of during a routine Form-4 scan. We’ve got the CEO picking up shares and adding to his already considerable position just as the stock was preparing to register new annual lows.

We generally like to put stocks in this situation on watch, and will be anxiously awaiting the company’s quarterly results due in roughly two weeks.

BYND Update & More

Beyond Meat, Inc. BYND – Update

On Wednesday morning, we put a few options ideas on the radar in our premarket report, for the BYND chain. We signaled some weekly sets as well as one that expires at the end of next week. Our specific ideas were the BYND Weekly $86-88 Calls & 01/24 $95 Calls.

Despite a down day for the markets, BYND continued its impressive run, just in terms of the stock itself, which made a move from  81.16-97.90 between Wednesday and Friday. That alone works out to a modest, yet notable, increase of 21%, a figure which is rising as we speak, having breached $100 here in the premarket.

The moves produced by the calls we highlighted also enabled some fantastic gain opportunities for ourselves and our readers:

BYND Weekly $86-88 Calls
$86
: 1.43-12.30 (+760%)  
$87: 1.42-11.50 (+710%)
$88: 1.24-10.45 (+743%)

BYND 01/24 $95 Calls
$95: .85-7.15  (+741%)  


ContraFect Corp. CFRX

CFRX, which we signaled for observation in our report from December 17th, has continued the impressive run it has been on ever since our initial alert.

We witnessed shares changing hands for as little as .38 and the progress it has made is really great. On Friday, the stock registered a new high of 1.15, representing a roughly three-week upswing of 203%
