On this episode of The Hot Options Report, host Mark Longo breaks down a "Fed Day" session where traders kept their powder dry, yet the options tape remained scorching. We dive into the Top 10 most active products, starting with a massive dividend play in Restaurant Brands International (QSR) and a wild ride in Micron (MU) ahead of their high-stakes earnings announcement.

From Nvidia's post-showcase volume to Tesla's battle at the par strike, we analyze where the "smart money" was selling premium and where the zero-day buyers got burned.

On the Docket Today:

  • The Earnings Spotlight: Micron (MU) puts up 591,000 contracts as traders pile into the 500 calls—was it a repeat of the Microsoft "fade"?

  • Dividend Play of the Day: Why QSR crashed the Top 10 party.

  • Tech Fades: Breaking down the action in Nvidia (NVDA), Apple (AAPL), Microsoft (MSFT), and AMD.

  • Zero-Day Drama: A look at the $615 puts in Meta and the $19 calls in SoFi.
