Another Clean Sweep on Options Plays:

We finished out last week with a trio of spot-on options ideas, and we opened up this week yesterday morning in identical fashion! No one can be perfect all of the time, but recently it certainly seems as if it’s tough for us to miss.

Our fresh plays for the start of the new week were bolstered by overall market sentiments as the NASDAQ and S&P both arrived at new record highs. We had specifically targeted the SPCE Weekly $57-59 Calls, and the CCIV Weekly $26 & 07/21 $27.50-28 Calls. Positive movement on the day ranging from modest to excellent was recorded by all:

SPCE Weekly $57-59 Calls
$57: 
2.52-5.80 (+130%)
$58: 2.29-5.47 (+139%)
$59: 2.09-5.20 (+149%)
_____

CCIV Weekly $26 Calls
$26: 1.52-2.25 (+48%)
_____

CCIV 07/21 $27.50-28 Calls
$27.50: 2.10-2.76 (+31%)
$28: 2.00-2.52 (+26%)



Probility Media Corp. PBYA – Recap: 

We began tracking PBYA earlier this month, beginning on the morning of June 11th, and following the low of .0014 it registered on that day, the stock hasn’t looked back. Over the ensuing few weeks, we’ve seen gradual increases, but that got kicked into high gear yesterday with one heck of a session to start off the fresh trading week.

Had our readers only caught yesterday’s report, they still had access to intraday gains of up to 388% as the stock ran from .0017-.0083. Those who may have been tracking the stock since our initial alert have witnessed an even larger increase amounting to a total of 493%

AmpliTech Group, Inc. AMPGWe also wanted to track back to AMPG, which we profiled at the beginning of last month (>>View Report). The company recently added an independent director, with a wealth of related experience, and we feel the company has made an excellent choice.

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: MBRX Blows its Lid

 
Kimberly Clark Corp. KMB

We want to kick things off this morning by highlighting the fantastic options idea we included in yesterday morning’s premarket report. That was the KMB Weekly $125-128 Calls, and we’re pleased to relay the stellar first-day performance of those contracts, all four of which produced enormous multibag intraday moves, including a thousand-percent-plus play in the $128’s.

$125 Calls – Range: 1.40-7.14  – Max Gain: 410%
$126 Calls – Range: 1.00-6.50 – Max Gain: 550%

Moleculin Biotech, Inc. MBRX – Recap

Following the FDA fast-tracking of the company’s Annamycin drug, yesterday morning we noted that this stock we began tracking late last month had risen by 89% (.7772-1.47) right on the heels of the good news. It would appear that the development took some time to fully filter through the investment community, because even we weren’t prepared for the enormous continuation of momentum that has now transpired.

From yesterday’s 1.25 low-of-day, MBRX shot up like a rocket and ultimately reached a new peak of 3.15. That worked out to a single session surge of 152% From our initially observed low, it represents an increase of 305% in just over three weeks of trading. This has not turned out to be our biggest stock-only call of the year so far just yet, but it is right up there among the best.

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: PEP Surges & More

PepsiCo, Inc. PEP

Pepsi had a solid across the board beat following its premarket earnings release yesterday, and we seized opportunity to include the  PEP Weekly $124-125 Calls in our morning report.

A five-dollar intraday run by the stock allowed for some very nice opportunities to profit in our pair of targets. The $124 Calls ran from .72-3.40 for a big 372% rip, while the $125’s traded from .32 to 2.45; a gain of 666%


Verb Technology, Inc. VERB

This stock is a newcomer to the NASDAQ, having only recently uplisted from the OTCQB, which has been the subject of a selloff over the past six weeks. That was kicked into another gear earlier this month when the company announced that its move to the NASDAQ would be accompanied by a $20M offering at roughly half the market price at the time.

Now that it has fallen well below the offering price, and indicators are suggesting a rebound may be in order, we are going to flag this play for observation in the days and weeks ahead.
