Recession Fears? We’re About to See the Greatest Short Squeeze in History

by | Mar 11, 2025

LIVE at 1 PM ET: See why elevated VIX levels have made Lance Ippolito’s Warped Options strategy even more effective!

Look, everywhere you turn, the left-leaning media is screaming recession. For once, they might be right! Stocks are tanking, crypto millionaires are puking positions, and even Tesla’s Elon Musk can’t dodge the negativity.

But here’s the deal — that’s good news. The market is forward-looking, and this pain right now means future gains. We’re seeing massive opportunities forming for everyday investors like you to scoop up discounted shares in high-quality stocks.

Here’s what’s cooking:

📉 Recession Priced In: Stocks have already corrected hard, which means the worst might already be behind us.

🚗 Tesla’s Epic Short Squeeze: Everyone hates Elon Musk right now — setting up Tesla for a huge bounce from $200 to $300 as shorts scramble to cover.

🤖 AI & Crypto Rebound: Weak hands sold out, clearing the way for a big-time rally fueled by FOMO.

🚀 Small & Midcaps: I’m rotating into smaller names poised for explosive gains — including why TKO could soon hit $200.

Stay tuned and check out my video up top, because we’re about to ride one of the greatest market rallies in history.

Order Flow: 

Earnings season is winding down… For the moment, but it will be back before you know it.

We have seen a couple of recent orders in Rubrik (RBRK), a name we don’t see often reporting after the close Thursday.

Both were puts and the October expiration is way too dated for our taste…

But with shares trading just above $53 today, a trader is targeting the March monthly expiration, $50 strike puts to the tune of more than $325k in premium. Market makers expect a move of $12.56 higher or lower, so this is well within that move.

Banks have taken an absolute beating amid all the tariffs and recession talk, but we caught a couple of sizable bets in Deutsche Bank (DB)…

DB is trading around $23 this afternoon, over 3% off the lows of this morning, and a trader snagged the April $22 strike calls while another trader went a bit longer-dated to July for the $25 strike.

As always, respect the risk!

P.S. WARPED OPTIONS EMERGENCY MEETING AT 1PM ET

Ever since the start of March, the markets have been quite a rollercoaster… While many traders are feeling the heat, Lance Ippolito believes Warped Options could be an even better strategy now that the VIX is over 20…

In fact, just over the past week, he managed to lock in a 50% winner while most stocks were down 50%! 

Pretty neat, right?

Join him live at 1 p.m. ET today, March 13, and not only will he share the warped options he’s keeping an eye on… He’ll also explain why he thinks these options tend to perform well when the VIX is at 27 and climbing.

Join Him Here at 1 PM ET!
