Massive Bearish Bet on TSMC: $20 Million Put Trade
The biggest news on Friday was the unexpected downward revision of U.S. nonfarm payroll data. The May and June figures were revised down by more than 200,000 jobs, leaving employment growth as a shadow of what was initially reported. Suddenly, it feels like the U.S. economy is on the verge of collapse, seemingly needing rate cuts to recover.The market has been itching for a pullback, and now it has found a reason to drop.Some bearish indicators are emerging, such as VIX call spreads with strikes ranging from 60 to 100. Whether these are bullish call spreads or bearish call spreads, such strike prices are highly unusual:$VIX 20251022 60.0 CALL$VIX 20251022 100.0 CALLAdditionally, a massive bearish put trade was opened on TSMC with September expirations:$TSM 20250905 240.0 PUT$TSM 20250905 2

$ProShares UltraPro Short QQQ(SQQQ)$ I bought a partial position in SQQQ to tactically hedge against a potential short-term pullback in the Nasdaq-100. Tech valuations look stretched, and I see rising risks from macro factors. This inverse ETF provides leveraged downside exposure, helping to balance my portfolio while keeping the position size controlled.

$Advanced Micro Devices(AMD)$ I’ve added to my position in AMD, riding the wave of AI-driven momentum that’s finally gaining broad market recognition. After a rough start to 2024, AMD has more than doubled in the past three months—proof that sentiment is shifting fast. Even cautious analysts like Stacy Rasgon are hiking targets and upgrading short-term projections. With AI chip sales to China resuming in the second half and Wall Street slowly catching up to AMD's growth story, I believe the upside still has room to run.

$Walt Disney(DIS)$ I made an additional investment in Disney as signs of a turnaround are becoming clearer. While the stock has underperformed over the past five years, recent results show strong momentum. In fiscal Q2, revenue rose 7% and adjusted EPS jumped 20%. Streaming growth is accelerating, with Disney+ adding 1.4 million subscribers despite price hikes, and Hulu and ESPN digital platforms showing strength. With bundled packages gaining traction and a 16% EPS growth target for fiscal 2025, I believe Disney is on track for a sustained recovery and long-term value creation.

$SOFI 20250815 20.0 PUT$ SoFI: collect $1720 (2%) premium for this cash secured put with strike at $20. Contracts expire in 2.5 weeks on 15th Aug. SoFI formed a topping tail candle on 29th July after reaching $25.11 on good earnings release only to close at $22.40 and then lower to $21.87 on Wed 30th July. This move was attributed to SoFI's announcement of $1.5 billion public offering of new shares (71.9 million new shares) at $20.85 a share to shore up its finances. Market booed over the move so that explained the drop due to dilution effects of enlarged share base. I'm trading on bullish setup as the new shares of $20.85 sort of setting up a bottom of how low the stock would go before stabil

$GDX 20250829 50.0 PUT$ GDX: collect $70 (1.4%) from this cash secured put with strike at $50 and expiring in 4.5 weeks on 29th Aug. GDX price is lower on Wed and took the opportunity to sell new put. Still the price continue to drop so the trade is currently in paper loss. Still haven't hit the strike of $50 so I'll be safe for now. Trade to for short cover so won't mind being exercise to nett off my short positions. Gold is trading at around $3300/oz so it's still continue to be trading in a range and looks bearish lately.

Timing Matters: American vs. European Options | #OptionsHandbook EP007
Why does the options trading screen show “US” and “EU”? 🤔 It all comes down to option style—American vs. European. Despite the names, this has nothing to do with where the options are traded. It's not about geography, but when the option can be exercised! Here’s how the Options Handbook breaks it down: ▶ Exercise Timing ⏰ American-style options: It can be exercised at any time from the day you buy them until they expire. More flexible, and most retail traders deal with American-style options. European Options: It can only be exercised on the expiration date, not before. Easier to value for pricing models. ▶ Common Types 📝 In most cases, options on individual stocks and ETFs are American-style, wh
