Invest with sarge: Trading options during earnings season
Apr 10 08:00
Dear mooers,Sarge is back again to our live streaming event, where we'll be joined by Jerry Kronenberg, director of financial content at Moomoo Technologies Inc and Stephen “Sarge” Guilfoyle, a former New York Stock Exchange floor trader for Credit Suisse and others. This time, we’re going to focus as we move toward earnings season on trading options in and around a company’s earnings report.
We’ve all seen stock prices sometimes move dramatically up or down following a company’s earnings report. What can seem like a small EPS or revenue miss or beat compared to analysts’ forecasts or a change in forward guidance can send a stock soaring or tumbling. What might that mean for options traders? What are the potential pros and cons of trading options around a stock’s earnings report?
Let's find out in the live show together![]()
