Bearish – CAT $122.90 – Industrial
The idea presented is the opinion of the Options Action staff and not a recommendation by OptionsPlay.
On Friday’s Options Action, the crew analyzed the performance of Caterpillar stock. CAT has underperformed the market for the past 7 years and continues to weaken as the trade war heats up. Coupled with slowing growth and weaker fundamentals, CAT may decline into earnings. Expecting CAT to trade lower, Michael Khouw suggests buying a July 120/110 Put Vertical for a $2.75 Debit. As of Friday’s close, these puts were trading at a $2.67 Debit.
