Blitz Daily: The Bulls Hunt for Real-World Gains in Snap’s AR Rollout

by | Aug 26, 2021 | Uncategorized

In Thursday’s Blitz Daily, we’ll take a look at social media company Snap Inc. as the company announced new feature upgrades to its platform.

After completely crushing earnings a few weeks ago, the viral video sharing app, Snap Inc. rolled out the latest update to Snapchat’s nearly 530 million active users on Thursday. Packed into the update is a revamped version of Snapchat’s altered reality (AR) scan feature that will allow users to identify everything from clothing brands to dog breeds. 

The new functionality is poised to grab loads of eyeballs, and the boys on Wall Street are buying time in the options chain to take advantage of this pullback. Thursday saw nearly 30,000 contracts traded between the SNAP Nov. 19 $75 strike and $80 strike calls.

But it’s not the only company that has Wall Street charging ahead. Take a look at today’s top trades….

Today’s Top Orders:

  • American Express Co. (NYSE: AXP): Dec. 17 $170 CALL.

  • Snap Inc. (NYSE: SNAP): Nov. 19 $80 CALL.

  • Altimmune Inc. (Nasdaq: ALT): Oct. 15 $19 CALL.

Check out my short video and I’ll break down today’s most unusual options order flow in three minutes flat…

A friend of mine sent me this chart about three months ago. I should probably print it and keep it in my wallet next to a photo of my daughter. Given the sheer number of questions I’ve fielded lately, I’ll probably end up showing this chart more than her picture.
