Options traders are positioning aggressively ahead of a clutch of June earnings events. Several names show sharp sentiment shifts.
SAIC hit a year-low put/call ratio on Sunday. That means call buying has decisively overtaken puts. The defence-IT firm reports earnings imminently, with active expiries stacked at June 18 and July 17. Short interest sits at just 6.9% of free float. Bears are thin on the ground.
RBRK tells the opposite story. Bulls dominate the options flow ahead of its June 3 print. The cybersecurity firm carries 10.3% short interest. Options expiries cluster tightly around June 5, 12, and 18 — traders are picking precise windows. Market cap is $12.7bn.
OKLO is the week's most alarming setup. Short interest jumped 21% in a single week to 23.5% of free float. Availability of shares to borrow is just 9.8% of SI. That squeeze potential is real. Expiries run through August.
RVMD grabbed headlines after positive pancreatic cancer trial data. The biotech's short interest is modest at 5.7% of free float. Call demand spiked on the news.
VEEV saw shorts double recently. The borrow market remains relaxed though, with availability at over 1,100% of SI. Options flow expiring June 18 and July 17 will confirm whether bears are committed or just testing the move.
