Investment Rationale

As we wait for HLT to report Wednesday morning and TMUS on Thursday afternoon, we look for opportunities among the Tech giants that report this week. Across the board, all the major tech names that lead this AI rally are trading at nosebleed valuations, except Alphabet. While still expecting over 16% EPS growth this year, GOOGL trades at only 22x next year’s earnings, presenting a long entry opportunity just before earnings. The risks lie in search revenue and communication of timelines for their AI integrations that could drive the stock performance after earnings. With options premiums elevated, we have a rare opportunity to sell a Bull Put Spread going into earnings collecting over 43% of the vertical width. Sell to Open the Sept 1 $121/$114 Put Vertical @ $3.05 Credit. With a hypothetical portfolio of $100,000 we recommend risking 2% of it on this trade, which is 5 Contracts for a total risk of $1,975 in. Set a stop loss on the spread when losses exceed 100% of the premium paid, about $6.10 Debit.
