The Hot Options Report: 01-27-26


Listen Later

In this episode of the Hot Options Report, Mark Longo breaks down a wild Tuesday in the options pits where the "usual suspects" shared the stage with some massive earnings-driven volatility. While the broader market volume was steady, individual names like Micron (MU) and UnitedHealth (UNH) stole the spotlight with explosive moves and unusual paper.

The Countdown Highlights:
  • The Nvidia Standard: Even on a "light" day, Nvidia (NVDA) holds the #1 spot with 1.46 million contracts. We look at the $190 calls as traders bet on a return to the mid-session highs.

  • UNH's Earnings Crater: The healthcare giant plummeted nearly 20% following a disappointing outlook. We dive into the massive open interest on the $600 calls—expiring in 2027—and ask: is this a bold recovery play or a massive hedge?

  • Micron is "On Fire": Closing up another 5.4%, Micron's $420 calls are fetching nearly $10.00. How much gas is left in this AI-fueled tank?

  • Tesla Tumbles (in Volume): In a rare twist, Tesla gets kicked to the #4 spot with volume levels roughly half of its daily average. Mark analyzes why the $440 calls are seeing "light" action.

  • Deep Dive into the Tape: From Coreweave (CORW) continuing its repeat rally to Apple (AAPL) seeing rare meaty put action, we track the flow that actually impacts your P&L.
