This trade says you bought the call, and "bullish," but on your portfolio it says "short"...

Are you bullish or bearish Palantir?

Why are you buying in the money call options?

@dissectmarkets This is a great question, I am also curious 😃

@dissectmarkets So a $5 Call would be the right to buy 100 shares of PLTR for $5 per share by January 16th, 2025. If PLTR shares aren't $5 or higher on Jan 16th, 2025, this option will expire worthless.

Since the share price is currently $7.84, if you assume PLTR DOESN'T fall 36%, then these options will be worth... something. But to make the full premium back, you'd need PLTR to go up at least 14.16% (to $8.95).

I guess that's a pretty safe bet... PLTR will probably go up by 14% at some point in the next 21 months.

^ Is that essentially the bet you're making @eric or do you think about this differently?

@dissectmarkets PLTR's next earnings call is May 8th... and with how the rest of tech has been doing, maybe this is an earnings play?

@nathanworden @dissectmarkets it's a safe play for earnings, as well of over the long term IMO. I think the general defense and government spending space will see more contracts, at higher contracts, and I also like what Palantir is doing with AI.

@eric not bad reasoning at all 🙌
