Tyler Crowe, Matt Frankel, and Jon Quast discuss: - Tesla's earnings - Elon Musk's announcement that Tesla will discontinue production of the Model S and X. - Meta's massive capital spending plan - Microsoft's future getting closely tied to OpenAI - Stocks on our radar Companies discussed: TSLA, META, MSFT, GOOG, LUV, AAON, BMI Host: Tyler Crowe Guests: Matt Frankel, Jon Quast Engineer: Dan Boyd Disclosure: Advertisements are sponsored content and provided for informational purposes only.

This episode of Options Boot Camp dives into one of the most significant shifts in the equity markets: the arrival of 0DTE (Zero Days to Expiration) options for single stocks like Nvidia, Tesla, and Apple. While the excitement is high, hosts Mark Longo and Dan Passarelli highlight a critical technical risk that many retail traders overlook—Contra-Exercise. Episode Summary The "0DTE era" has officially expanded beyond cash-settled indices like the SPX. With single-name equity options now listing for Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, traders face a new logistical hurdle: physical settlement. Unlike cash-settled indices, equity options result in the delivery of actual stock, making the after-hours window a potential minefield for "pin risk" and unexpected assignments. Key Discussion Points: The 0DTE Expansion: Why names like IBIT, NVDA, and TSLA are joining the zero-day fray and what it means for market volatility. Understanding Contra-Exercise: The mechanics of the "Do Not Exercise" (DNE) order and how to force the exercise of out-of-the-money options. The After-Hours Window: Why the 4:00 PM ET close isn't the end of your risk, and how news after the bell can trigger "ghost" assignments. Broker Deadlines: A breakdown of how different brokers handle the cutoff times for contra-instructions. Risk Management: Why the "best case scenario" is almost always closing your position before the closing bell. Go to tastytrade.com/podcasts and see why Investopedia named tastytrade the best broker for options in 2024. Genius loves company.

This episode of The Hot Options Report tackles a high-stakes "Fed Day" session as the market navigates a steady policy hold and a massive wave of "Mag 7" earnings. Host Mark Longo breaks down the top 10 most active names, tracking the wild after-hours divergence between Meta's moonshot and Microsoft's retreat, as well as the parabolic move in Micron and Intel's roaring recovery. Fed Day & Earnings Chaos: The Tale of Two Tapes Despite a light start to the session as traders kept their "powder dry" for the FOMC announcement, the afternoon transformed into an earnings battleground. The Fed maintained interest rates at 3.50% to 3.75%, but the real volatility was found in the tech sector's after-hours reactions. The Top 10 Options Breakdown Rank Ticker Volume Key "Hot Option" Notable Move 1 NVDA 1.92M 192.5 Calls (Exp. Friday) Gained $3.00 to close at $191.52. 2 INTC 1.37M 50 Calls Surged 11% ($4.85) to close at $48.78. 3 TSLA 1.21M 450 Calls Rallying $13.60 after-hours to $444. 4 PLTR 641K 170 Calls Sold off 5% ($8.35) to close at $157.33. 5 AMZN 593K 245 Calls Dipped $1.67 to close at $243.00. 6 MU 570K 450 Calls Exploded 6% ($25.00) to close at $435.28. 7 MSFT 524K 500 Calls Dropping $23.00 after-hours to $458. 8 META 521K 700 Calls Surging $62.00 after-hours to $731. 9 AAPL 461K 270 Calls Slipped $1.83 to close at $256.44. 10 NFLX 433K 86 Calls Fell 1% ($0.84) to close at $84.64. Highlights from the Tape Meta vs. Microsoft: A dramatic split in AI sentiment. Meta is soaring over $730 in the after-hours, making those $11 premium 700 calls look like a steal. Meanwhile, Microsoft is "circling the bowl" despite beating estimates, dropping nearly $23 after-hours as investors weigh heavy AI capex. Micron's Moonshot: MU continues an absolute tear, up 38% year-to-date and another $25 today. The 450 calls are the target for those betting the AI hardware frenzy isn't over. Intel's Revenge: After a brutal post-earnings drubbing, INTC roared back with an 11% gain, fueled by reports of foundry partnerships with Nvidia and Apple. Nvidia Holds the Crown: NVDA remains the volume king with nearly 2 million contracts. Traders were heavy in the 192.5 calls, looking for a break of the intraday highs.
Episode Summary Earnings season is in full swing, and the options tape is absolutely on fire. Host Mark Longo breaks down a massive day of paper, where it took over 671,000 contracts just to crack the Top 10. From Meta's massive post-earnings "lottery ticket" winners to Microsoft's tumble into the "dark side," we examine the strikes and flows defining the market on this action-packed Thursday. Plus, a look at Apple's after-hours movement following its Q1 revenue beat and why Tesla is back in the #1 spot despite a rough day for shareholders. Inside the Hot Options Tape Tesla (TSLA): Reclaims the #1 spot with 2.79M contracts. We dive into the $420 puts as the stock slips nearly 3.5% post-earnings. Nvidia (NVDA): A rare drop to #2 despite 2.54M contracts. Is the $192.50 call paper looking for a Friday payday? Microsoft (MSFT): The "dark side" prevails after earnings, with a 10% sell-off. We track a massive 100,000-lot butterfly spread targeting December. Meta (META): A spectacular win for the bulls. Those $700 "lottery ticket" calls paid off big as the stock surged toward $740. Apple (AAPL): Breaking down the $260 calls as the stock trends higher in the after-hours following a $143.8B revenue report. Palantir (PLTR): Returning to levels not seen since last summer. Are the $150 puts signaling more pain ahead? MicroStrategy (MSTR): Taking it on the chin with a 10% drop. Was the $167.50 call flow a brave rebound play or just lighting money on fire? Market Breakdown by the Numbers Rank Symbol Volume The "Hot" Option Price/Context 1 TSLA 2.79M $420 Puts Nearly 100k contracts; price ~$4.93 2 NVDA 2.54M $192.50 Calls 211k contracts; eyes on tomorrow's close 3 MSFT 2.34M $575 Calls Part of a massive Dec. butterfly spread 4 META 1.42M $750.50 Calls Bulls sweating as stock hits $744 high 5 PLTR 1.14M $150 Puts 53k contracts; stock hit low of $147.12 Resources & Links Generate Your Own Reports: TheHotOptionsReport.com Go Pro: Get exclusive insights at TheOptionsInsider.com/Pro
The markets are seeing red as a wild earnings week takes center stage. From the "Tale of Two Techs" (Microsoft vs. Meta) to a massive volatility spike, the All-Star Panel breaks down the trades, the trends, and the unusual activity lighting up the tape. Plus, we dive into the "other" Wolf and an Argentinian oil play. The All-Star Panel Mark Longo: CEO and Founder of the Options Insider Media Group. Henry "The Flowmaster" Schwartz: Vice President of Institutional Derivatives at Cboe Global Markets. "Uncle" Mike Tosaw: Wealth Manager at St. Charles Wealth Management. Trading Block: A Sea of Red and Earnings Chaos The panel discusses a volatile Thursday session with the S&P 500 seeing a 100-handle range. While tech takes a hit, other sectors like energy and financials are showing resilience. The Tale of Two Ms: Comparing the diametrically opposite reactions to Meta (META) and Microsoft (MSFT) earnings. META: Stock up ~10%; those who bought the 700-strike calls for $11 are seeing massive wins. MSFT: Stock down ~12% (a $58 drop); the same call-buying strategy was a total wipeout. Tesla (TSLA) Tumbles: Down over 2% as the market reacts to a shift in focus toward robotics and AI over traditional EV growth. Small Cap Update: Henry Schwartz notes that while the Russell 2000 (IWM) is outperforming YTD (up 6%), historically, this "value over growth" rotation rarely sticks. VIX Volatility: VIX flirting with an 18 handle. Notable paper includes a massive 50,000 lot of the April 80 calls trading for $0.36. The Odd Block: Unusual Activity in WULF and YPF The Flowmaster identifies massive directional bets in two very different names. 1. TeraWulf (WULF) A Bitcoin-related name seeing a $3 million directional bet. The Trade: Buyer of 36,000 Feb 16 Calls (Average price: $0.82). Context: This is a massive sweep that creates the largest regular listed position in the name, likely betting on M&A rumors or a Bitcoin rebound. 2. YPF Sociedad Anonima (YPF) An Argentinian energy ADR seeing unusual size. The Trade: Buyer of 9,999 April 43 Calls. The "Conspiracy": Why 9,999 instead of 10,000? Henry suggests it might be to dodge block scanners set for five-digit minimums. Mail Block: Listener Perspectives Question of the Week: How are you trading this earnings week? Current Results: 44% are selling premium to "live the dream," while the rest are split between buying "juice," trading 0DTE, or staying on the sidelines. VIX Poll: 75% of listeners would rather sell the April 80 calls for $0.36 than buy them. Around the Block: What to Watch Apple (AAPL) Earnings: Reporting after the bell. The market is pricing in a 4% move—roughly double its historical average. Sector Rotations: Watching if the energy (XLE) and industrial (CAT) strength can offset the tech drag. Silver (SLV): Uncle Mike highlights silver's insane run, outperforming the S&P by 8x last year and up 60% this year.
Tesla (TSLA) beat earnings and showed dedication in ramping up robotaxi and robotics. However, it will pull back on EVs by discontinuing its S and X models. Steve Westly believes the Mag 7 company is driving down a dark road, pointing to steeping competition in the U.S. and abroad. He poses the question to Tesla: "how do you keep that huge P/E ratio up" with headwinds ahead? CFRA's Garrett Nelson adds the conversation by explaining how the "disconnect" in share price to earnings growth can come back to bite shareholders. ======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

Tyler Herriage believes markets are experiencing an "early innings move higher" with tech reclaiming positive momentum. He's watching Tesla (TSLA) the most out in the first round of Mag 7 earnings, noting the company's robotaxi and robotics prospects as "transformative." He says he will look past a potential earnings miss as Tesla builds up its foundation for the future. As for the FOMC interest rate decision, Tyler expects a "boring" press conference with hopes for a clearer rate cutting path. ======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

Kevin Green and Alex Coffey join Marley Kayden and Sam Vadas for an in-depth earnings breakdown from some of the biggest names on the Street. It was a mixed message from Microsoft (MSFT) as KG goes under the hood on the company's cloud business. Meanwhile, Meta Platforms (META) guided for capex spending in the year ahead between $115B-$135B which caught the attention of investors in the after-hours. The story from Tesla's (TSLA) report also pointed to infrastructure investments in the U.S. with additional plans to invest $2B to buy preferred shares of xAI. Shares of IBM Corp. (IBM) popped as its AI exposure helped drive it to a top & bottom line earnings beat. Alex notes IBM's full "billion dollar increase" in cash flow guidance will potentially help the company continue growth in the AI space. ======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

Defense Stocks and ETFs are rising fast right now in anticipation of increased defense spending and the potential implementation of the "Golden Dome" in the United States and Greenland. We share some top individual names as well as ETFs. We highlight the top performing Emerging Market ETFs that are sharply outperforming the S&P so far this year. We also review Barron's top Income Ideas for 2026.
@investopedia's Caleb Silver makes the case that markets are still very bullish. The issue comes down to headline risk ramping volatility higher, with the latest example seen in the resurgence of tariff talks and Greenland concerns. That said, Caleb points to high retail trading in Nvidia (NVDA) and memory chips like Western Digital (WDC) and SanDisk (SNDK) as signs that bulls aren't slowing down. He later explains how Tesla (TSLA) plays into the high-beta trade. ======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Subscribe to the Market Minute newsletter - https://schwabnetwork.com/subscribeDownload the iOS app - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/schwab-network/id1460719185Download the Amazon Fire Tv App - https://www.amazon.com/TD-Ameritrade-Network/dp/B07KRD76C7Watch on Sling - https://watch.sling.com/1/asset/191928615bd8d47686f94682aefaa007/watchWatch on Vizio - https://www.vizio.com/en/watchfreeplus-exploreWatch on DistroTV - https://www.distro.tv/live/schwab-network/Follow us on X – / schwabnetwork Follow us on Facebook – / schwabnetwork Follow us on LinkedIn - / schwab-network About Schwab Network - https://schwabnetwork.com/about
