Trade Alert: Offshore Infrastructure, Optics, Advanced Manufacturing, And Energy Storage
Bullish options trades on one of our Top Names from last night and three Market Watchers names that passed our technical screens.
Offshore Infrastructure, Optics, Advanced Manufacturing, And Energy Storage
Today’s alert has one Top Names trade and three Market Watchers trades.
The Top Names trade is in offshore energy infrastructure. This name has already been a big winner for us once—744% on premium outlay—and we have another open trade in it now. We’re adding a new one because it’s now in Portfolio Armor’s Top Names, its fundamental scores remain strong, and the offshore / Gulf postwar infrastructure repair theme still fits the current macro backdrop.
Two Repeat Names
One of the Market Watchers names is an optical systems company where we already have an open trade that’s currently in the black. The current setup is strong enough that we’re looking at a new, later-dated position rather than just letting the old one ride.
Another Market Watchers name is a solid-state battery company. We tried a trade on it yesterday, but it didn’t fill. The stock still passes our screens, so we’re giving it one more shot. The broader thesis is that battery technology is no longer just an EV story; grid storage, AI data centers, drones, aerospace, defense, and other high-power applications are all becoming part of the opportunity set.
Space Launch Supply Chain
The third Market Watchers trade is in advanced manufacturing for the space launch supply chain.
SpaceX reportedly tried to acquire this company in 2021. The acquisition didn’t happen, but SpaceX remained a major customer and close partner, using its machines to make parts for Raptor engines. That’s the sort of relationship that can matter if public space and launch-supply-chain names keep drawing more attention ahead of SpaceX’s predicted world record IPO.
As usual, we’ve priced these trades so we’re not overpaying for them, and we’ve included pre-set exit instructions, so we don’t have to babysit the trades after they fill.
A Chance To Lock In Current Prices
A brief reminder: subscription prices for the Portfolio Armor Substack are going up from $40 per month or $400 per year to $50 per month or $500 per year on Thursday, but current subscribers will be grandfathered into the price they’re currently paying. So consider joining now, if you’re a free subscriber. If you join and change your mind, I’ll be happy to give you a prorated refund at any time.
