GM, GIS Options Recaps & More

Options Updates:

We continue plugging away at attempting to find options plays despite having so few earnings reports to rely on as fuel, and yesterday our big name target was GM. Were were observing the GM Weekly $58-59 Calls with the stock in the midst of a pretty impressive run that has generally persisted for roughly the past month.

The stock ran pretty good out of the starting gate yesterday, and that activity allowed for some decent gain opportunities in the pair of contract sets that we were tracking. Here were the intraday runs they recorded:

GM Weekly $58-59 Calls
$58: .94-1.72 (+83%)
$59: .55-1.10 (+100%)

For an additional update, we’ve been tracking the GIS 10/15 $55-50 Calls since the morning of September 22nd, and we wanted to swing back around to report on the new highs we witnessed in those plays. Here are the ranges and total possible gains that were registered there in recent sessions:

GIS 10/15 $55-60 Calls
$55: 3.80-6.95 (+83%)
$57.50: 1.70-4.50 (+165%)

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: BBBY Options & More

Bed Bath & Beyond, Inc. BBBY

The last time we were mentioning Bed Bath & Beyond, was back in January when the stock was trading just below $14. It’s been in a solid uptrend more recently, reaching over 19.50 yesterday. However, we’re getting a bearish feeling from the chart now, especially following the company’s earnings report for the 4th quarter yesterday postmarket.

The company came fairly close to analyst expectations on earnings, yet recorded same-store sales declines for the seventh quarter in a row as e-commerce players like Amazon continue to horn in on brick-and-mortar reliant chains.

We are going to track a bearish options idea into the end of the week for this chain, with the BBBY Weekly $17.50-17 Puts, with the stock already being down a couple of dollars from yesterday’s highs here in the premarket.
