IREN – Buy – 100 shares
If I’ve heard of Iris Energy, you’ve heard of Iris Energy. IREN, the renewable power, Bitcoin miner/Data center, has been on an upward price tear the last year. Enough so, that social and legacy media are touting its run and adding it to their portfolios. However, in the last month, big grizzlies have been eating…
SMCI – Earnings Gamble – Update
12.5.25 Expired ITM From bad to worse. Another example of why this Bear exclusively trades paper. The first leg of our Super Micro earnings play, yielded additional losses. With SMCI price closing at $34.65 the 8 Cash Secured Puts that we sold expired in the money. What stings more than buying 800 shares of a…
GCZ25 – Sell – Update
11.26.25 Expired ITM Uncle Fozzie is going to be mad…but we might need to pawn the Studebaker. At close on October 31st, we opened one contract of GCZ25 with a strike price of $4,013.40. For the first nine days of the trade, we could have made money. Price danced at, or below our strike price,…
JACK – Sell – Update
11.21.25 Expired OTM Sweet, sweet honey. Even on paper, a win feels good. We entered this trade as JACK was near all time lows, having just shed its underperforming stores and Del Taco portion of the business. With that dead weight shed and a better than expected earnings report, price rose to $16.81 before the…
SMCI – Earnings Gamble – Update
11.7.25 Expired OTM and Expiration 12.5.25 Time for the Epi pen because we already torched $1,500.12 of the potential $1,855.66 profit. Our 11.7.25 Call option expired out of the money, aka worthless. Super Micro Computers Inc. is currently trading at $40.47 after hours(11.7.25). Although SMCI beat on earnings, the stock fell to $40.47 in the…
SMCI – Earnings Gamble
Expiration 11.7.25 and 12.5.25 Super Micro Computers Inc. is currently trading at $50.13 after hours(11.3.25). Set to release earnings tomorrow after hours 11.4.25, we set up a two trade, earnings play. Trying to get honey like this, might unsurprisingly end with a swarm of bees, burying their stingers in our greedy fur. The first trade…
GCZ25 – Sell – 1 Contract
Expiration 11.26.25 Gold has been on a historic run the last few months. Although it is easy to believe that US spending and the debt/GDP ratio will certainly result in more dollar devaluation and ultimately higher prices, in the shorter term there could be a pullback to balance possible over extension/leverage. Next update 11.27.25
WEAT – Buy – 25 Contracts
Expiration 1.15.27 The Teucrium wheat futures have been trading towards the bottom of historical pricing. If layoffs continue to increase and non asset owners feel the increased pressure of monetary inflation, it could bode well for the grain.
CORN – Buy – 20 Contracts
Expiration 5.15.26 The Teucrium corn futures have been trading towards the bottom of historical pricing. If layoffs continue to increase and non asset owners feel the increased pressure of monetary inflation, it could bode well for the grain.
JACK – Sell – 20 contracts
Expiration 11.21.25 With price nearing all time lows(-4.4 PE), the Bear inside of me felt like better times must be ahead. Having just sold the Del Taco portion of the business at a substantial loss, along with the closures of 200 underperforming stores, hopefully that will free them of dead weight. With earnings to be…
JACK – Buy – 3 Contracts
Expiration 1.15.27 With price nearing all time lows(-4.4 PE), the Bear inside of me felt like better times must be ahead. Having just sold the Del Taco portion of the business at a substantial loss, along with the closures of 200 underperforming stores, hopefully that will free them of dead weight. I made this Options…

Acquisition 10.31.25 With price nearing all time lows(-4.4 PE), the Bear inside of me felt like better times must be ahead.
