WBD missed on its earnings report last week on Wednesday the 7th. The company reported some bad news. They lost an NBA contract, then wrote down $9.2 Billion in charges related to their linear TV business. This is after writing down $2.1 billion related to the recent merger. It wasnât all bad news for WBD, they did add 4 million subscribers to their streaming channel during the most recent quarter. The professional investor sold 124,500 puts and used the premium to reduce the cost of purchasing 124,500 calls. We donât know if the investor was hedging an existing short position because they are worried that the stock will bounce back after putting bad news in the past, or if they are entering a new bullish position speculating that the stock will rise. Either way, the options trade is showing that this pro thinks chances for an upmove in the stock are good over the next six weeks.Â
