LIVE AT 11 AM ET: THE NEXT BIG TESLA CATALYST IS HERE
The California wildfires are devastating on many levels — from personal losses to the financial impact on investments. While it’s a tough topic, as traders, we’re here to protect wealth and seek opportunities.
Today, I’m breaking down three stocks you’ll want to avoid in this scenario, plus a compelling play on the long side that’s gaining momentum.
Here’s what you need to know:
🔥 Avoid These Stocks:
- 1 stock in a freefall, reflecting its heavy exposure to California losses. Normally, insurance stocks are a safe haven, but this one has been almost cut in half.
- A utility stock with a history of disaster-related declines. Once a $50 stock, it hasn’t recovered from its past challenges.
- Another utility stock hit hard, with volatility spiking as the wildfires continue to impact operations.
💡 An Alternative Play:
Consider this sector ETF for better liquidity and less risk than buying puts on individual stocks. Its options offer tight spreads, high volume, and strong potential for gains during market moves.
📈 A Long Play to Watch:
This company, focused on wildfire suppression, has more than doubled in recent days with surging volume. It’s a promising name to consider as it breaks past highs.

P.S. Elon, Trump and Tesla Earnings…
If you’ve been following the news, you know that Tesla’s CEO Elon Musk will take office to head the DOGE program under the Trump administration next week…
Here’s why that’s interesting…
This is happening just days before Tesla’s Q4 2024 earnings report.
The last time we saw Tesla making headlines like this right before an earnings season… Well, let’s just say our trading community had a lot to celebrate.
But what really caught our attention is the unusual options flow Lance is seeing right now.
It’s almost identical to the pattern before their biggest Tesla trades last quarter.
And at 11 a.m. ET, Lance will break down the specific opportunity this unique situation is creating — and how you can take advantage of it TODAY, Jan. 16.
Naturally, while we cannot promise future returns or against losses…
Knowing how earnings trades can move fast, we wanted to make sure you’re ready before next week.
