FDX Bullish Opening Trade Signal

Investment Rationale

Investment Thesis
We closed a bullish credit spread to lock in gains ahead of the company’s mid-December earnings report, then initiated a new bullish credit spread in FDX. The company subsequently delivered a beat on both revenue and EPS, upside momentum continues to strengthen, and valuation remains attractive. Our current bullish credit spread in FDX is profitable, and the plan is to close the position, realize gains, and reallocate the proceeds into another bullish options strategy in FDX, following the same blueprint used in the previous trades.

Options Trade
We are selling the FDX Feb 13, 2026 290/275 put vertical for a net credit of approximately $4.72. This bullish credit spread allows us to define risk while positioning for FDX to remain above the 290 level through expiration. The trade offers a maximum reward of $4.72 against a maximum risk of $10.28, resulting in a risk/reward ratio of approximately 2.2:1 (risk to reward). We are collecting about 31.5% of the spread width in premium, providing an attractive probability-weighted setup that benefits from time decay while maintaining clearly defined downside exposure aligned with our bullish thesis.
