Perfect! Now I have comprehensive data. Let me write the article focusing on the unusual options sentiment patterns and avoiding the excluded/already-covered tickers:

War Fuels Energy Options Surge

EQNR Equinor posted 100% bullish options sentiment this week. The $99B Norwegian oil giant surged 66% year to date as Hormuz closure fears drove defensive positioning. Traders piled into calls showing pure conviction.

GD General Dynamics grabbed unanimous bullish flow. The $94B defense contractor jumped 4% this year despite broader sector volatility. Options traders positioned for extended Middle East conflict driving procurement cycles.

SCCO Southern Copper hit 100% positive sentiment on war metal demand. The $144B miner rallied 32% in 2026 as copper supply concerns intensified. Short score reached 62 yet options bets stayed bullish.

Energy infrastructure names dominated positive flow. WMB Williams Companies and EPD Enterprise Products Partners both posted 100% bullish sentiment as pipeline values climbed.

Bearish extremes emerged in defensive sectors. WELL Welltower hit zero positive bets showing full capitulation. SYK Stryker posted 0% bullish flow despite 24% analyst upside potential. PLD Prologis absorbed pure bearish positioning as industrial REIT sentiment collapsed.

Options calendars extended through July showing sustained war premium bets. Energy expiries clustered around May earnings suggesting event-driven positioning remains dense.
