In Thursday’s Blitz Daily, we take a look at retail giant Target just days before Christmas.
Shipping timelines have become unreliable, especially for this time of year. So instead of worrying about delays holding up the delivery of their children’s favorite toys, shoppers are once again returning to brick-and-mortar stores to ensure Santa is able to leave some presents under the tree.
Big-box stores like Target are also taking advantage of the popularity of services like curbside pickup. Offering such options not only minimizes the transmission of COVID-19 during the busy holiday shopping and travel season, but it also allows the company to serve more customers.
And it looks like traders are confident Target is going to have an outstanding holiday season, coming in to buy the March 18 $240 strike calls, which represents an upside of almost $20 per share from the current price of $221.
If Target isn’t on your holiday wish list, I have two other trades for you that are seeing unusual options activity…
- Target Corp. (NYSE: TGT): March 18, 2022, $240 CALL.
- FuboTV Inc. (NYSE: FUBO): Jan. 21, 2022, $21 CALL.
- Las Vegas Sands Corp. (NYSE: LVS): Dec. 31, 2021, $39 CALL.
- Las Vegas Sands Corp. (NYSE: LVS): Dec. 31, 2021, $40 CALL.

P.S. Anyone placing trades during the week may actually be stacking the cards against themselves…
Look, every week, thousands of headlines like earnings or bad news out of the Federal Reserve or China wreck what may seem to be perfectly good trade setups.
So instead of traders risking their hard-earned cash during the meat of the week, there’s a simple Friday afternoon strategy that is able to skip all of the madness…
It taps into some of the most reliable forces in the market, already giving New Money Crew Head Trader Lance Ippolito direct access to gains like 62% on PM, 28% on AMC and 30% on UAL, all in the past couple of weeks!
