Someone Bet 13 Million That Tesla Rips 25% by April

Someone put about 13.4 million into Tesla calls that need a 25% rally by April 2027, built from scratch at 122 times the strike's prior open interest. The tell is the location: Tesla is the only Mag 7 name still down on the year, so this reads as a relative-value catch-up bet, not chasing leadership. A smaller October call ties to tonight's Roadster event, but the April calls are the real position. The catch: Tesla has missed EPS in seven of its last eight reports. 📊 tastylive: https://www.tastylive.com/ 📰 Get Tom's pre-market analysis every morning: https://www.tastylive.com/newsletters 📘 FREE Options Strategy Guide: https://tinyurl.com/bp9ms763 📱 Follow tastylive on X: https://x.com/tastyliveshow Chapters 00:00 13 million that Tesla rips 25% 00:30 The Roadster event tonight 00:56 The April 2027 calls 01:22 A 25% move to break even 01:44 Tesla, the only Mag 7 laggard 02:08 A relative-value catch-up bet 02:36 The smaller event-driven October call 03:27 Tesla's uncomfortable earnings history 04:52 Valuation is still a problem 06:08 The signal is conviction #tastylive #signalvsnoise #tesla #optionsflow #callbuying #roadster #magseven #earnings #optionstrading #stockmarket tastylive is a real financial network, producing hours of live programming every day.
