$AS some more here with a roll/adjustment to the Nov 6th spreads - adding $280K to the position

OptionRunners

$AS AI and tech is bleeding. Money needs to find some place to go. Currently healthcare and staples are those sectors. Maybe discretionary names like AS that are profitable and experiencing strong financial growth and under valued will start to be inciting and safe.

Yours Truley

$AS the 20 and 50 day are acting as tough resistance to break over. I wouldn’t be surprised to see a pull back to at least mid 26s

Crom5775

$AS This has overshot the daily implied move of 29.47. Maybe a reversal is now in order. The weekly move will be just under $29.

$AS these November 6th $29/$33 spreads bought for $0.68 were just sold for $1.79. They rolled them up to the $30.50/$34 call spreads for a $600K credit and locked in a $56K profit.

$AS The other good news potentially if we close above it, the 50 SMA is at 29.70. Once we close above that the institutional money comes in even harder. Any gains above this there will be a retest of 29.70 area.
