1.$NVIDIA (NVDA.US)$It continued to reach a record high of nearly 3% last Friday, with options trading volume of 1.99 million shares, an increase of more than 40% over the average daily turnover, and a bullish ratio of 57%. On the options chain, the two call orders, which expire on June 21, with an exercise price of $880 and expire on September 20, with an exercise price of $950 each had a trading volume of 38,000, with an outstanding volume of about 43,000 and 2,900, respectively.

Nvidia previously officially announced a 10-1 stock split plan. According to reports, the adjustment will be carried out when the market opens on June 10 EST, and Nvidia's shareholders will receive an additional 9 common shares after closing on June 7. In terms of impact, analysts believe this may attract more interest from retail investors while paving the way for them to be included in the Dow. Marco Iachini, senior vice president of Vanda Research, said: “Stock splits may be the biggest catalyst for continuing to attract retail liquidity.”

2,$GameStop (GME.US)$It rose nearly 4% last Friday, surging more than 13% after the market. The trading volume of 440,000 options was 440,000, up more than 20% from the previous trading day, and the bullish ratio rose to 71%. In the options chain, the number of calls due this Friday with an exercise price of $128 was the highest, with 27,000 orders and 9,400 unclosed positions.

After the market on Friday, the US “retail group stock” game station announced that the IPO plan disclosed by the company last week has been completed, with gross revenue of nearly US$933.4 million before deducting commissions and issuance fees. Earlier, after the recovery of the “Roaring Kitten” account triggered an explosion in stock prices, Game Station announced that it would distribute up to 45 million additional shares by “issuing at market price.” According to the latest announcement, the average price of the additional sale price of GameStop is $20.7, which is nearly double the average stock price last month.

3.$Coinbase (COIN.US)$It surged nearly 9% last Friday, with options trading volume of 340,000, surging nearly 120% from the previous trading day, and the bullish ratio rose to 73%. In the options chain, call transactions due on July 19 with an exercise price of $230/220 were the top, at 24,000 and 23,000, respectively, and the number of unclosed positions was 1,200 and 25,000, respectively. Additionally, multiple calls due this Friday earn double the option premium.

The US Securities and Exchange (SEC) approved plans by the New York Stock Exchange, Chicago Board Options Exchange (Cboe), and Nasdaq for a spot Ethereum ETF. The move removed a key obstacle to Ethereum spot trading in the US, but the SEC has yet to issue full approval for spot Ethereum ETFs, and approval of the issuer plan is still required. According to the analysis, approval of a spot Ethereum ETF will drive the rise of cryptocurrencies. As the market becomes more volatile, more users will come to trade, and trading volume will drive an increase in cryptocurrency exchange fee revenue.

Risk warning

An option is a contract that gives a holder the right, but no obligation, to buy or sell an asset at a fixed price on or at any time prior to that date. The price of an option is affected by a number of factors, including the underlying asset's current price, exercise price, expiration time, and implied volatility.

The implied volatility reflects the market's expectations for options to fluctuate over a period of time to come. It is data inverted by the options BS pricing model, and is generally viewed as an indicator of market sentiment. When investors anticipate greater volatility, they may be more willing to pay higher options to help hedge risks, leading to higher implied volatility.

Traders and investors use implied volatility to assess the appeal of option prices, identify potential mispricing, and manage risk exposure.
