The $6.5 Million Bet Against Nvidia

A trader made a huge win betting against Nvidia … today’s “casino-like” stock market … how Louis Navellier finds trades that benefit Early Tuesday, a mystery trader bought 60,000 contracts of an option spread on AI-juggernaut Nvidia. The wager appeared incredibly risky. Nvidia’s stock price ascent this year has been virtually relentless. And yet, for this bet to be profitable, the trader needed Nvidia to fall from Tuesday’s price of roughly $126 to below $119 by today. That’s a drop of almost 6% in only a handful of days – a seemingly absurd outcome based on the tech darling’s unyielding bullishness in 2024. Well, the mystery trader didn’t need until today… As Nvidia cratered on Wednesday, dropping 6.5% to fall below $119, about 58,000 units of the same spreads changed hands. While it’s impossible to determine if this was the same trader cashing out, it appears that way. If so, this mystery trader walked away more than $6.5 million richer… in about 24 hours. In Warren Buffett’s latest annual shareholder letter to Berkshire Hathaway investors, he highlighted the “casino-like” nature of today’s stock market From Buffett: For whatever reasons, markets now exhibit far more casino-like behavior than they did when I was young… Though the stock market is massively larger than it was in our early years, today’s active participants are neither more emotionally stable nor better taught than when I was in school.

3 Fintech Stocks to Buy Now: Q3 Edition

The third quarter of 2024 is set to uncover plenty of investment opportunities throughout the fintech landscape. Driven by expectations of a return to optimism throughout Wall Street, financial technology will become a key growth sector over the months ahead. With the likelihood of Federal Reserve rate cuts occurring in the United States during Q3 2024 soaring, there may never be a better time for investors to add fintech stocks to their portfolios. Crucially, the prospect of rate cuts will encourage higher investment volumes throughout Wall Street and increase consumer spending power and confidence to the point where fintech platforms can see greater usage levels. With the quarter leading up to the holiday season, we’re likely to see more consumers embrace investment apps, leverage more payments and take a strong interest in using financial services for borrowing and various other purposes. While the generative AI boom has captured the imagination of retail investors in recent months, the third quarter may belong to fintech.
