Earnings season is reshaping options flows. TSLA and GM report this week. Both are drawing heavy options interest ahead of their prints.
Tesla is down 21% year-to-date. Options negative bets rank among the highest of any large-cap US name, per ORTEX data. The RSI sits at 42, pointing to weak near-term momentum. ORTEX Alt Data shows German car registrations running +269% year-on-year for the quarter being reported, a dataset that leads Tesla revenue by 43 days with a strong fit. That divergence between the data and the stock price sets the stage for a sharp reaction either way.
GM is flat on the year at +3%. German car data leads GM revenue by 15 days and runs +133% on the same quarter last year. Analysts see 24% upside. Short interest is low, meaning any positive surprise carries squeeze potential.
NVDA and are drawing the largest negative options bets among large-caps. Micron's RSI is at 34. NVDA sits at 38. Both chips trade well below their 52-week highs. Put-heavy flows suggest hedging rather than outright conviction.
META is also due to report Q3 results. Its options positive rate sits at 100% over the past week among large interactive media names. Analysts see nearly 15% upside from current levels. The stock is up only 7% year-to-date.
Monster Beverage shows a 100% positive options score over seven days, the highest reading in the ORTEX screener for $5B-plus names. The stock is down 40% year-to-date, a level that may be attracting call buyers looking for a reversal.
