In Thursday’s Blitz Daily with Lance Ippolito, we take a look at cable TV kingpin Comcast after receiving its latest stock upgrade.
September’s Consumer Price Index showed an 8.2% rise in its basket of goods and services year over year, down slightly from August’s 8.3% rise.
In turn, we saw stocks squeeze higher Thursday following the release of the latest inflation figures as the S&P 500 rallied around 2.4%.
The bounce had traders in a bullish mood as a flurry of call buying hit the tape early in the session.

Cable TV giant Comcast was among those benefiting from Thursday’s optimism after analysts at Citigroup upgraded the stock with a buy rating.
The news helped catapult shares of the broadband behemoth around 6% from Wednesday’s closing price as traders grabbed shares and call options by the fistful!
My scanners spotted one institutional buyer sweep up about 3,000 contracts of the Oct. 14 expiration, $29 strike call options for around $114,000 in premium!
And that wasn’t the only name getting love from the bulls Thursday…
- Comcast Corp. (NYSE: CMCSA): Oct. 14, $29 CALL.
- Tesla Inc. (Nasdaq: TSLA): Oct. 14, $210 CALL.
- Ford Motor Co. (NYSE: F): Oct. 28, $14.50 PUT.
