Nov 20, 2024 | stocknews.com | Tim Biggam

Below are two bullish and bearish arguments that point to a period of consolidation over the next few weeks. In other words, up one day, down the next but nothing much happening week to week. Also, of course, an option trade that has the potential to make money for nothing. We are option traders after all.

Jul 20, 2024 | stocknews.com | Tim Biggam

It was a month ago that I wrote about some reasons to be cautious on the red-hot rally in Microsoft (MSFT) continuing. https://stocknews.com/news/msft-3-reasons-why-ai-may-mean-artificially-inflated-for-microsoft/Valuations, Comparative Performance and Implied Volatility (IV) were all at extremes. Usually, extremes tend to eventually become less extreme. That indeed was the case in Microsoft and many more too hot to handle AI names.
