Now I have solid data. Let me write the article.
Options markets are flashing bullish signals this week. Several names heading into earnings prints show heavy call-side positioning.
MACOM Technology Solutions topped the options sentiment screen with the highest score over the past seven days. The semiconductor stock has surged 110% year-to-date. Its May 15 expiry is the nearest catalyst date. RSI sits at 81 — deeply overbought territory.
Dynatrace bulls "dominated the options desk" ahead of its Q4 print, per ORTEX data. The stock carries active expiries on both May 15 and June 18. Options traders are leaning heavily call-side going into the result.
Alibaba shows the deepest options chain of any name in today's scan. Ten expiry dates run through July 21. The stock heads into its May earnings print with bulls holding an edge in positioning. That is a notable shift given ongoing trade tension between the US and China.
On the bearish side, KKR and Royal Caribbean sit at the bottom of the options sentiment table. KKR is down nearly 20% year-to-date. Options flow there skews defensive.
QXO stands out separately — its short score is 79, days-to-cover sits at 22, and analysts see 74% upside. Call buyers here could be positioning for a short squeeze catalyst.
