Will You Trade Like Buffett or Bet With Trump?
It’s mid-August, and the market is still hovering around a high of $6,481. Are you feeling torn—worried about missing out, yet anxious about a sudden pullback?
Some savvy “left-side” traders are turning this uncertainty into opportunity using buy call options, and the results have been impressive. Check out how they did it:
🎉 Huge congrats to @CarolWinsAll for earning $122,767 profit buying UNH call.
🎉 Huge congrats to @pinksocks for securing $2,574 profit buying UNH call.
🎉 Huge congrats to @Blackk for earning 334% returns buying INTC call.
🎉 Huge congrats to @Am3n_Tao for securing 264% returns buying INTC call.
Why Buy Calls?
Many see buying calls as a speculative “high-risk, high-reward” trade. But when you identify high-confidence opportunities, buy calls can be a powerful tool to amplify returns. With inherent leverage, you can turn a small investment into significant gains—all while limiting your downside.
Which Stocks Are Making Big Moves?
$UnitedHealth(UNH)$: Buy Like Buffett
Berkshire Hathaway recently added three new positions, with UnitedHealth being the largest at $1.572B. Insurance is Berkshire’s core strength, and with Ajit Jain overseeing due diligence, this investment carries serious expertise.
Why it’s attractive: UNH is currently about 51% below its all-time high, leaving a potential 104% upside if it returns to peak levels, plus dividends along the way.
Long-term view: With Berkshire likely supporting UNH around $300/share, even a 3-year horizon collecting dividends could deliver market-beating returns.
$Intel(INTC)$: Trump Making U.S. Chipmaking Great Again?
Intel has had a wild few weeks. On Aug 7, 2025, Trump called for CEO Lip-Bu Tan to step down over potential conflicts. After meeting the CEO, Trump tweeted positively about Intel’s story. Shortly after, Bloomberg reported the U.S. government might take a stake in Intel.
Then, on Aug 15, Trump mentioned potential tariffs up to 200–300% on semiconductor imports, though details remain unclear. Government involvement could support Intel’s foundry business and overall growth.
Catalysts: Low valuations, limited downside, and potential government-backed growth make Intel a strong candidate for short-to-mid-term recovery, regardless of the foundry business outcome.
So, what’s your move?
Will you follow Buffett and bet on UNH, or watch Trump drive Intel?
Where do you see UNH and INTC heading next? 🚀
