$ARM ARM Holdings saw a surge of unusual options activity with 26 large trades detected. The sentiment appeared split 50% bullish and 23% bearish involving 12 puts worth $1.02 million and 14 calls totaling about $849K. Shares slipped 2.9% to $165.45 as volume came in lighter than average, hinting that big players may be setting up for volatility rather than direction. The mixed tone suggests anticipation of upcoming catalysts in chip licensing or AI-related demand.

$ASML Holding drew significant attention from institutional-sized investors today, with options activity showing a notably bullish lean. The stock rose 0.43% to $1,075.45 on solid volume, as traders appeared to position for strength in the semiconductor space. When this level of activity hits ASML, it’s often a precursor to meaningful price action possibly signaling growing confidence in chip sector momentum as 2025 approaches.

$CCJ Cameco saw options traders loading up on calls, suggesting a confident tone toward the uranium producer. Of the 15 tracked trades, 66% were bullish and 26% bearish, totaling roughly $594K in calls versus $263K in puts. Shares closed down 1.83% at $104.72, but the strong call buying may reflect expectations for renewed momentum in the nuclear energy story.

$DOCU Docusign stood out today after deep-pocketed investors showed a clear bullish preference in options trading. Shares jumped 3.81% to $71.61 on higher-than-usual volume. The activity hints at optimism that Docusign’s push into workflow automation and enterprise solutions could fuel stronger results in coming quarters.

$ENPH Enphase Energy faced heavy bearish options flow, signaling caution from big traders. The stock fell 3.24% to $30.13 on strong volume as investors bet against near-term upside. The move likely reflects concerns around slowing solar demand and margin pressures, though longer-term bulls may see opportunity if sentiment becomes too negative.

$NEM Newmont registered 13 unusual trades with a slight bullish bias 53% bullish and 46% bearish. Calls dominated with $2.22 million in value compared to $190K in puts. Shares climbed 3.33% to $82.31 as gold prices strengthened, drawing renewed institutional interest. The options flow indicates that funds may be positioning for continued gains in precious metals.

$PWR Quanta Services saw bearish positioning in its options market, even as shares rose 1.15% to $453.83. The disconnect between price action and options sentiment suggests hedging or short-term protection against volatility in infrastructure projects. For retail traders, this could be an early signal of profit-taking or risk management by the big players.

$RBLX Roblox experienced heavy bearish options activity with 90 large trades 65% bearish versus 26% bullish. The flow included 40 puts valued over $3.4 million. Shares fell sharply by 15.51% to $113 following disappointing performance metrics. The bearish positioning reinforces near-term caution, though some traders might eye a rebound setup once oversold conditions stabilize.

$SOFI SoFi Technologies showed mixed but generally bullish options flow despite a 6% price decline to $29.03. Whales were seen building long exposure, suggesting confidence in SoFi’s long-term growth model as it evolves into a full-service financial platform. The divergence between the weakness and bullish options bets could imply smart money accumulation at lower levels.

$UNH UnitedHealth Group saw 74 large options trades today, leaning bearish overall. About 48% were bearish compared to 33% bullish, with total call value around $4.3 million and puts at $935K. The stock dropped 2.96% to $344.75. The activity suggests funds are positioning defensively amid uncertainty over healthcare policy changes and sector-wide cost pressures.

$XOM Exxon Mobil showed a slightly bearish options tone as 52% of 19 large trades leaned negative. The flow included 15 calls worth $1.69 million and 4 puts totaling $147K. Shares slipped 1.51% to $114.69 on above-average volume. Traders appear to be hedging exposure as oil prices soften, possibly anticipating short-term weakness while maintaining long-term energy exposure.
