The Options Insider Radio Network The Hot Options Report: 02-05-26
The "Monster" is back in the spotlight! On this episode of The Hot Options Report, host Mark Longo breaks down an explosive session dominated by MicroStrategy (MSTR) and Amazon (AMZN) earnings. As Bitcoin slips below $67k, we analyze the aggressive deleveraging in MSTR options and the surge in put activity. Meanwhile, we look at the wreckage in Amazon as investors weigh record revenue against a staggering $200B AI capex forecast for 2026.
We dive deep into the Top 10 most active names, including:
-
The MSTR Meltdown: With Bitcoin testing the $65k level, we track the massive volume in MSTR weekly puts and the "forced deleveraging" hitting the tape.
-
AMZN's Cloud Divergence: AWS is growing at 24%, but the stock is tumbling 9% after-hours. Is the AI spend too high for the Street to stomach?
-
Alphabet (GOOGL) & The VIX: Tech rotation intensifies as the "fear gauge" spikes 13%.
-
Chip Sector Fallout: Qualcomm (QCOM) and Arm (ARM) lead the semiconductor slide—we look at the protective put spreads catching fire.
Whether you're looking for a hedge or trading the volatility, we show you exactly where the "big paper" is landing today.
