Yesterday we highlighted<\/a> the busy week ahead, chock full of crucial earnings and economic reports.  The parade begins after today\u2019s close when Alphabet (GOOG, GOOGL) and Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) release their Q3 earnings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Both companies are considered key players in artificial intelligence, even though they have been overshadowed by larger peers.  GOOGL got off to a slower start in integrating AI into its search than Microsoft (MSFT), while AMD clearly trails Nvidia (NVDA) on the hardware side. Their one-year performances have been quite solid, though both are also well below the highs they set earlier this year:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

GOOGL has one of the most neutral setups that I can recall.  For options expiring this Friday, the IBKR Probability Lab is almost perfectly symmetrical (though the preponderance of upside strikes shifts the curve to the right), with a peak in at-money options:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The implied volatility for weekly at-money options is roughly 6% (measured on a daily basis), which is appropriate considering the last six monthly post-earnings moves average 6.3% (-5.04%, +10.22%, -7.50%, -9.51%, +5.78%, -0.13%).\u00a0 Skews are quite flattish, with a now-familiar \u201cW\u201d shaped skew.\u00a0 This shape has become increasingly customary for megacap tech skews, replacing the more historically typical \u201cElvis Smile\u201d that indicates risk aversion.\u00a0 Skews for the subsequent two weeks are also relatively flat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As for AMD, it is uncanny.  I can essentially substitute \u201cAMD\u201d for \u201cGOOGL\u201d in the prior paragraphs.  The Probability Lab is similarly symmetrical though the preponderance of upside strikes also stretches the curve to the right.  And the peak is also in at-money options.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The skew chart is also uncannily similar to GOOGL\u2019s, though the \u201cW\u201d in the first week\u2019s options is a bit less pronounced and the at-money volatility for weekly options is about 7% daily instead of 6%.  As with GOOGL, that value is commensurate with the 6.96% average post-earnings more for the past six reports (+4.36%, -8.91%, -2.54%, +9.69, -7.02%, -9.22%)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Quite frankly, it is difficult to find a meaningful message in the options market pricing for both these companies.  The implied volatilities are almost exactly where they should be, and the skews display neither risk aversion nor a bias toward a post-earnings rally.  My takeaway is that the post-earnings trading will be almost completely reliant on each company\u2019s results and more importantly, their guidance<\/a>.  That\u2019s not a bad thing, but it also means that there is unfortunately little to be gleaned from options market pricing.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
