Unusual options activity is spiking ahead of a packed earnings week. ORCL, ADBE, and HIMS are all drawing heavy flow into near-term expiries.
Oracle carries the most active options chain. Expiries run from June 12 through September 18. Short interest sits at just 2.1% of free float. That low bearish conviction makes the options surge notable. Traders are positioning — not hedging existing short books.
Adobe shows a similar cluster. June 18 and July 17 are the focal expiries. SI % FF is a modest 4.8%. The next earnings print appears imminent, and options flow is front-running it hard.
HIMS is the highest-risk setup. Short interest is 29.6% of free float — a heavy bearish overhang. Availability of shares to borrow has dropped to zero. Options expiries crowd around June 12 and June 18. That combination of maxed-out shorts and aggressive near-term options flow screams potential for a volatile reaction either way.
SMMT rounds out the picture with 22.6% SI % FF. Options out to July only — a tighter window. has the deepest expiry chain, stretching all the way to September 2026. That breadth signals sustained institutional interest well beyond this earnings cycle.
Watch HIMS most closely on June 12. Zero borrow availability plus elevated short interest plus compressed options expiry equals a high-voltage event.
