My Earnings Options Playbook
This earnings season, I’m watching $Amazon (AMZN.US)$, $Advanced Micro Devices (AMD.US)$, and $Tesla (TSLA.US)$. Amazon is on my radar for its strong cloud growth via AWS and improving retail margins. AMD interests me due to AI chip demand and its competition with Nvidia, which could drive volatility. Tesla remains a key focus because of margin pressures, delivery numbers, and potential updates on new vehicle models or energy business performance—all catalysts for significant price movement post-report.
My plan is to sell straddles on AMZN and AMD post-earnings to capture implied volatility (IV) crush, as these stocks often overprice IV leading into reports. For TSLA, I plan to buy short-term calls post-earnings if results or guidance indicate recovery in deliveries or stronger-than-expected margins. My goal is to capitalize on volatility mispricing while maintaining limited directional risk exposure. Additionally, I’ll monitor guidance commentary to identify follow-through trades for the next quarter. This approach blends short-term income (via IV crush) with tactical momentum opportunities.
