Podcasts about Scott Bauer

The futures options markets are digesting a turbulent Fed week, and there's no shortage of action across equities, energy and metals. On this episode of This Week in Futures Options, host Mark Longo is joined by Scott Bauer of Prosper Trading Academy to break down the latest activity across CME Group's futures options markets. They examine the post-Fed swings in Nasdaq and E-mini S&P 500 options, including the continued dominance of short-dated trading and unusually heavy put activity across the equity index complex. Then it's off to crude oil, where elevated volatility, changing skew and active downside strikes are creating some intriguing setups. The conversation also turns to copper's continued rally and growing upside options interest, plus the latest action in gold following the Fed decision. Along the way, Mark and Scott discuss gamma exposure and dealer positioning, the popularity of 0DTE options, futures trading in the CME Challenge, and whether traditional relationships between gold, equities and crypto are beginning to shift.

The Green Rush is over and we are dealing with the consequences. Abandoned cannabis farms speckle the landscape. And on these abandoned farms are a variety of environmental harms that need remediation: improperly graded roads and undersized culverts send sediment into salmon-bearing streams; piles of garbage rotting in the wildlands; pesticides, fertilizers and petroleum improperly stored and at risk of failing; and poorly-constructed ponds at risk of sudden collapse. That's where Scott Bauer, the California Department of Fish and Wildlife's Cannabis Remediation Manager steps in. Working together with nonprofits, local governments, and cannabis farmers, Scott works to coordinate clean up of abandoned sites. Scott joins the program to discuss the historic and ongoing impacts from cannabis production and what is being done to address them. And you are helping too: each time you buy cannabis products from a legal California market, a portion of your taxes go to environmental programs. Support the show
