Earn $3000 in 2 months How NVDA’s Monday, Wednesday & Friday Expiries Supercharged My Options Selling Strategy
Turning Theta Decay Into a Daily Income Engine 💰 Introduction – When the Market Changes, I Adapt The options market is constantly evolving, and Nvidia (NVDA) is one of the best examples of how structural changes can create new opportunities for traders who understand the game. Over the past year, NVDA introduced Monday, Wednesday, and Friday (MWF) expiries, transforming how short-term options behave. Many traders complain about more noise, more volatility, more “casino vibes.” I don’t. I trade with the flow, not against it. As an option seller, especially someone who thrives on theta decay, these frequent expiries have become an edge — one that helped me generate around USD 3,000 in just two months trading NVDA options, as clearly reflected in my profit and loss chart.

The Electronic Manufacturing Services sector rose an average of ~2.40% at the Feb 2, 2026 ET market close, primarily driven by strong AI-related demand for data center and networking equipment, boosting key players like Jabil (JBL), Flex, and Sanmina amid ongoing hyperscaler investments.Additional support came from positive manufacturing sentiment (e.g., ISM data showing expansion) and sector rotation into AI infrastructure beneficiaries, with EMS firms benefiting from outsourced production for cloud/AI hardware despite broader market choppiness.U.S. stocks rose on Monday following sharp swings that shook financial markets overnight, the $S&P 500(.SPX)$ added 0.5% and snapped a three-day losing streak. $D
🌟🌟🌟I believe that $Advanced Micro Devices(AMD)$ will have an increase not exceeding 5% tomorrow. AMD's 4.03% gain to close at USD 246.27 on February 2, shows that the market is positioning it for a strong earnings report. The current price action reflects strong institutional confidence in AMD's Data Centre and AI accelerator segments. Investors are effectively "buying the rumour" of a data centre surge but the 5% threshold remains a psychological and technical ceiling until the official Q4 results provide the catalyst required to justify a more aggressive rally. I would be keen to find out what CEO Lisa Su has to say on AMD's road map for 2026 and its lofty target of capturing double digit AI market share.
My stock in focus today is $Rocket Lab USA, Inc.(RKLB)$ . Elon Musk’s latest memo highlights Starship’s push toward ultra-high launch frequency, massive satellite deployment & even space-based AI data centers—an ambitious roadmap that will significantly stretch SpaceX’s execution capacity. As Starship resources are increasingly tied to Starlink V3 and long-term Moon/Mars initiatives, outsourcing parts of launch or satellite manufacturing becomes more likely. RKLB stands out here, with a solid Electron launch track record, Neutron progressing, and vertically integrated satellite manufacturing capabilities. This shifts RKLB from a niche launch provider to a potential beneficiary of space industrialization. Even limited outsourcing from SpaceX

Can ARM Less Exposure To "GPU wars" Bring It To Better Structural Growth?
$ARM Holdings(ARM)$ is set to report its fiscal third-quarter results tomorrow, Wednesday, February 4, after the market closes. The company is currently at a critical junction where its high valuation is being tested against the reality of its "AI everywhere" narrative. Below is an analysis of the upcoming earnings, key metrics to watch, and a comparison with AMD in the context of the AI growth cycle. Q3 2026 Earnings: The Numbers to Beat Analysts have set a high bar for ARM, following a streak of earnings beats in 2025. ARM Holdings (ARM) reported its fiscal Q2 2026 results on November 5, 2025. It was a "beat and raise" quarter that initially saw a muted market reaction, highlighting the intense scrutiny on AI valuations. Fiscal Q2 2026 Performanc
Ciena Corp: Beyond the Silicon Peak — The Quiet Toll-Collector of the AI Efficiency Era AI investing still looks like a race up the silicon mountain. Faster GPUs, denser racks, louder narratives. $Ciena(CIEN)$ sits somewhere less glamorous but far more unavoidable: at the junction where power, distance and data collide. The market largely treats it as a beneficiary of AI growth. I see it as a physical bottleneck with pricing power. The arteries of AI, flowing unseen but indispensable This is not an AI hardware story in the conventional sense. It is an efficiency monopoly operating inside tightening constraints, and that distinction is being mispriced.

Disney Q1 Earnings: Streaming Monetization Accelerates while Parks Provide a Solid Anchor February 2, Pre-market – $Walt Disney(DIS)$ released its fiscal year 2026 Q1 earnings report, beating market consensus on both the top and bottom lines. The quarter's core narrative is the significant profitability improvement in the Streaming (SVOD) business, signaling a clear inflection point, while the Experiences (Parks) segment continues to serve as the company's "profit anchor." Management's full-year guidance—particularly regarding streaming margins and cash flow commitments—has provided much-needed clarity for the market. Key Metrics ~Q1 revenue hit $26 billion, up 5% year-over-year (from $24.7 billion), beati
AMD Is Up 100%+ Over 12 Months. What Its Chart Says Ahead of Earnings High-end chip designer $Advanced Micro Devices(AMD)$ has risen more than 100% over the past year, outpacing the S&P 500 and setting an all-time high in October. Let's see what its chart and fundamental analysis say heading into this week's Q4 earnings report. AMD's Fundamental Analysis AMD will release results after the closing bell on Tuesday, with analysts expecting the firm to post $1.32 in adjusted earnings per share on roughly $9.7 billion of revenue. That would represent 21.1% gain from the year-ago period's $1.09 of adjusted EPS, as well as better than 26% year-over-year growth from Q4 2024's approximately $7.7 billion i
PayPal Sees Bullish Options Support, Circle Capped Ahead of Earnings Ahead of earnings, $PayPal(PYPL)$ and $Circle Internet Corp.(CRCL)$ saw large-scale new-position options activity. Based on the trade structures, options flows are bullish on PayPal and bearish on Circle. Specifically, PayPal traders are expressing a bullish view by selling puts to bet that the stock will hold key support, while CRCL traders are selling calls to cap upside, signaling limited confidence in a rebound. PayPal: Selling puts to bet on a “no-blowup” earnings outcome PayPal is scheduled to report earnings before the market opens on February 3. In the run-up to the release,

My stock pick to monitor and feel bullish about is IREN. The current buzz is all about a massive pivot from "just another Bitcoin miner" to a high-powered AI infrastructure player.

AI Tool Support: My pre-market Options Plans for $DIS, $NXPI, $PLTR
Thankyou for @TigerObserver ’s weekly report, we are welcoming to another Earnings Super Week, with so many great tickers in focus. For Monday’s top ticker, I would like to choose $Walt Disney(DIS)$ , $NXP Semiconductors NV(NXPI)$ ,$Palantir Technologies Inc.(PLTR)$ to test my Options AI Tool. Below are detailed analysis and strategies for discussion only. Please be noted, its not suggestions but a test. I will try to apply the first option plans each to test the result. 1. $Walt Disney(DIS)$ Up +1.09%: CEO Transition News Fuels Rally, Eyes on $113 Resistance 🧾 Earning
My focus today is on $Palantir Technologies Inc.(PLTR)$ ahead of its Q4 2025 earnings release after the U.S. market close. Consensus expects revenue of about $1.34B, EPS of $0.23, already slightly above management’s prior guidance, meaning expectations are not low going into the print. Growth continues to be driven by strong AI demand across both government & commercial segments. Government revenue is supported by rising defense spending & contracts like the $448M Navy deal, while commercial revenue momentum remains key, following last quarter’s triple-digit U.S. growth. Ongoing adoption of AIP & tools like AI Hivemind further reinforces Palantir’s position in large-scale data integration. With the stock up roughly 78% in 2025 & o
A memory-chip meltdown has hit South Korea’s stock market.
Korean shares plunged 5% today, triggering a circuit breaker. Around midday, the Korea Exchange stepped in with a temporary trading halt, restricting sell orders to prevent panic selling from snowballing into even greater volatility. The sell-off was largely driven by profit-taking after a strong rally. The recent slide in memory stocks isn’t just about chips—it’s a "perfect storm" of outside factors: 📉 Silver Crash: Silver's wild drop triggered massive margin calls. Traders are selling their "winners" (like Micron/SanDisk) just to cover their losses. 🪙 Crypto Drag: Bitcoin’s dip below $78k is pulling down high-growth tech.

The post that I am about to share, squarely sums up $Tesla Motors(TSLA)$ in terms of its valuation and the bubble-hype surrounding it. Despite another quarter of disappointment, it is still thriving but for how long ? Without further delay, let’s find out. Quarterly Earnings Summary. TSLA did not post the kind of quarter that usually lifts a stock. Profit fell sharply, deliveries declined, and margins stayed under pressure. However, after-hours trading on Wed, 28 Jan 2026, told a different story. It was up +4% initially and it had (a) less to do with cars and (b) more to do with the future - that investors still want to believe in. By the numbers, the quarter was bruising: (see below) Financial Performances. Total Revenue: Came in at $24.9 billion

AMD Premium Valuation and Recent Rumour, Will These Affect Its Earnings Move?
We have seen how $Advanced Micro Devices(AMD)$ suffer more than 5% dip on last Friday (30 Jan), though AMD has a more balanced chip business than Nvidia. AMD stock trades at a premium valuation of 40 times expected 2026 earnings. With rumor concerning potential production hiccups for its upcoming MI450 AI accelerators, will this further shake investors confidence for AMD ahead of its earnings. As AMD prepares to release its Q4 2025 earnings on February 3, 2026, the concern of its "premium" status could not be overlooked. While $NVIDIA(NVDA)$ dominates the headlines, AMD has quietly positioned itself as the "balanced" alternative, though this comes with a high bar for performance. In this article, we would
