Trade Alert - (MU) April 27, 2021 - BUY

Tech Alert

When John identifies a strategic exit point, he will send you an alert with specific trade information as to what security to sell, when to sell it, and at what price. Most often, it will be to TAKE PROFITS, but, on rare occasions, it will be to exercise a STOP LOSS at a predetermined price to adhere to strict risk management discipline.


Alert

 

Tech Alert - Micron Technology, Inc. (MU) – BUY

BUY Micron Technology, Inc. (MU) May 2021 $80-$83 in-the-money vertical BULL CALL spread at $2.48

Opening Trade

4-27-2021

expiration date: May 21, 2021

Portfolio weighting: 10%

Number of Contracts = 39 contracts

Micron (MU) is a 5G play and this is a trade that the underlying stock will stay above $83 by May 21st expiration.

Just to remind readers, I took profits in MU call spreads in Feb & April already and now I’m going back in as we really drive into the heart of earnings season.

The premise behind this trade is that the FANGs will report for the rest of the week and I do believe their hardware divisions will cry about the lack of DRAM chips that MU produces.

There’s only $8.3 trillion of market cap in FANGs reporting earnings in the next few days and I do believe they will talk about the lack of DRAM chips and semi chips in general as well.

This is plenty enough to move MU higher.

2021 could turn out to be a blockbuster year for Micron's mobile business, as sales of 5G smartphones are expected to explode.

The chipmaker estimates that 500 million 5G smartphones could be consumed in the new year, as compared to 200 million units in 2020.

Micron is strategically placed to take advantage of this accelerating growth.

Micron CEO Sanjay Mehrotra boasted that Micron “achieved a record number of design wins in fiscal Q4.”

Micron is poised to win in the 5G era as a supplier to all the major smartphone manufacturers, with an outstanding portfolio of industry-leading low-power DRAM and managed NAND solutions.

If you do not trade options, I have recommended buying the equity in the stock pretty much the entire year so far from when the stock was in the low $70s.

My end-of-year target is $125 so buy and hold the stock.

Here are the specific trades you need to execute this position:

Buy 39 May 2021 (MU) $80 calls at………….………$9.62

Sell short 39 May 2021 (MU) 83 calls at….....…….$7.14

Net Cost:……………………..……........………..…….....$2.48

Potential Profit: $3 - $2.48 = $.52

(39 X 100 X $.52) = $2,028 or 20.97% in 24 days

 

 

If you are uncertain on how to execute an options spread, please watch my training video by clicking here.

The best execution can be had by placing your bid for the entire spread in the middle market and waiting for the market to come to you. The difference between the bid and the offer on these deep in-the-money spread trades can be enormous.

Don’t execute the legs individually or you will end up losing much of your profit. Spread pricing can be very volatile on expiration months farther out.

Keep in mind that these are ballpark prices at best. After the alerts go out, prices can be all over the map.
