In Tuesday’s Blitz Daily with Lance Ippolito, we take a look at pet supply retail Chewy ahead of Tuesday’s earnings.
Markets are a sea of red once again as fears of hawkish interest rate hikes deepen on Wall Street, sparking another round of selling.
The tech-heavy Nasdaq lead the way down among the major indexes, shedding as much as 1.6% as the smart money aims to dump higher-risk assets off their books.
But it isn’t just the big institutions unloading their tech shares as some insiders have been spotted joining the herd.
Leading pet e-commerce name Chewy saw repeated selling from CEO Sumit Singh in August — dropping more than $11.7 million worth of shares leading up the company’s Aug. 30 earnings event.
The stock plummeted 26% in the past two weeks, with bloodthirsty bears roaring all over the options chain.
My scanner spotted one trader line up a big-money downside bet early Tuesday, scooping up around 700 of the Sept. 16 expiration, $34 strike puts for more than $115,000 in premium!
Of course, that’s just one example of the fantastic order flow hitting Tuesday’s tape…
-
- Chewy Inc. (NYSE: CHWY): Sept. 16, $34 PUT.
- First Solar Inc. (Nasdaq: FSLR): Sept. 2, $102 CALL.
- American Airlines Group Inc. (Nasdaq: AAL): June 16, 2023, $15 CALL.
- Micron Technology Inc. (Nasdaq: MU): Sept. 16, $56 PUT.
