Option Tip of the Week
Regeneron Pharmaceuticals (REGN) Rallies to Two and a Half Year High

While many companies have seen a sharp drop in their stock price as a result of the Coronavirus, REGN has broken to levels not seen since September 2017. Take a look at the following two articles for details - Regeneron (REGN) Gains from Focus on Coronavirus Treatments and Why Regeneron Shares Rose 31.6% in February.

The coronavirus story is only getting worse. At the moment, Over 90,000 people have been infected and more than 3,500 have already died around the world. Unfortunately, those numbers may only increase without vaccines. However, there are companies racing to meet that need. We've put together a list of the hottest virus stocks at the moment, which can be viewed in our special report.

Technicals

The weekly chart below shows REGN breaking higher from a downward trend channel that has contained price action for nearly five years. This type of upward break usually signals a bullish continuation. On a daily chart, the stock also shows strong upward momentum and technical signs of breaking out. The main appeal to this stock is that it is notably outperforming in a period where the markets have generally been under pressure. Further, the stock is benefitting from the same driver that is otherwise creating downward pressure in the broader equity markets.

 REGN Chart March 2020

If you agree there's further upside ahead for REGN, consider this trade which is a bet that the stock will continue to advance over the next five weeks, or at least not decline very much.

Buy To Open REGN 09APR20 490 Puts (REGN200409P490)

Sell To Open REGN 09APR20 492.5 Puts (REGN200409P492.5) for a credit of $1.18 (selling a vertical)

This price was $0.02 less than the mid-point of the option spread when REGN was trading near $494.  Unless the stock rallies quickly from here, you should be able to get close to this amount.

Your commission on this trade will only be $1.30 per spread.  Each contract would then yield $116.70 and your broker would charge a $250 maintenance fee, making your investment $133.30 ($250 – $116.70).  If REGN closes at any price above $492.5 on April 09, both options would expire worthless, and your return on the spread would be 88% (1004% annualized).

Electric cars may soon be obsolete. The "Tesla Killer" is here.

It takes moments to charge. It's 100% emission-free. It costs next to nothing. And it involves no fossil fuels.

This is why Bloomberg projects it to "skyrocket 1,000 times over." And best of all...The tiny, little-known stock behind the "Tesla Killer" trades for just a few bucks.

Don't wait any longer. It's set to trade higher than Tesla within the next few months.

IBD Underlying Updates March 7, 2020

We have found that the Investor’s Business Daily Top 50 List has been a reliable source of stocks that are likely to move higher in the short run.  Recent additions to the list might be particularly good choices for this strategy, and deletions might be good indicators for exiting a position that you might already have on that stock.

As with all investments, you should only make option trades with money that you can truly afford to lose.

Happy trading,

Terry
