In Monday’s Blitz Daily with Lance Ippolito, we take another look at payment platform PayPal as Barclays moves its price target.
The big week Wall Street’s been waiting for is finally here, and the markets are floating higher on low trading volume.
Not only will we see the latest inflation numbers from November in Tuesday’s CPI print, but we’ll also see what Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell and his lackeys have in store for us in the final FOMC meeting of 2022.
As a result, we’re seeing a lot of small, bullish order flow hit the tape Monday in financials and tech names.
One stock rolling across the wire fitting both of those bills is our old friend PayPal.
Analysts at Barclays raised their price target for the fintech giant from $100 to $108 per share — a 47% increase from its current share price of about $73.
While the price hike couldn’t sustain a move higher, it did prompt some repeat bullish, big-money bets in the options ladder…
In the first 20 minutes after Monday’s opening bell, my scanners picked up one big swinger sweeping up about 650 contracts of the Dec. 30 expiration, $76 strike call options for more than $150,000 in premium!
Of course, if you’re more of a Cash App kind of person, I have more stand-out institutional trades waiting below…
- Discover Financial Services (NYSE: DFS): Dec. 16, $106 CALL.
- Capital One Financial Corp. (NYSE: COF): Dec. 16, $98 CALL.
- Teck Resources Ltd. (NYSE: TECK): May 19, 2023, $42 CALL.
- Tesla Inc. (Nasdaq: TSLA): Dec. 16, $190 CALL.
- PayPal Holdings Inc. (Nasdaq: PYPL): Dec. 30, $76 CALL
