Mispriced Options: $JD China Play Is In Play
From Macro-To-Micro Options Power Hour recorded on Oct 1, 2025
In this short clip from Macro-To-Micro Options Power Hour, recorded on Oct 1, 2025, Samantha LaDuc and Hans Albrecht discuss JD.com’s unusual options activity—over 400,000 January $40 call contracts traded—as implied volatility spikes even though the stock price hasn’t moved much.
They explain what this means for traders and how to position for potential upside while managing risk. Hans walks through how he would structure the trade using shorter-term call spreads or a broken-wing butterfly to profit if JD finally triggers higher, without overpaying for inflated volatility.
The conversation also connects this setup to broader AI and China tech plays like Alibaba, Baidu, and also AST Spacemobile, showing how volatility trends reveal where big money is positioning next.
