【August 28th US Stock Options Leaderboard】
$Goldman Sachs (GS)$ has the highest call transaction amount, but net selling is primarily in Calls, resembling a covered or upper hedge. Strategy: Implement a Call credit spread 780/820C to collect premiums; shareholders can also directly sell 780C for coverage, reducing holding costs.
$Tesla (TSLA)$ has the highest Put amount, but B:S≈0.9, indicating that more are selling Puts, with a neutral to bullish sentiment. Strategy: Implement a Bull Put Spread 320/300P to collect premiums; for a more stable approach, a Bear Call Spread 370/390C can be used to control risk.
$Palantir (PLTR)$ ranks second on the Put side, with a high percentage of Puts and a dominant buying interest, resembling institutions increasing their hedges rather than purely shorting. Strategy: Shareholders can set up a collar (sell 170C / buy 150P) to protect against drawdowns; those bearish can implement a Bear Put Spread 155/145P, a low-cost bet on a pullback.
