FedEx Stock Lost From No Vision, But Robust Q2 Earnings ShineU.S. delivery firm FedEx released their Q2 2021 earning report showing total revenue of $20.6 billion which is up 19% year-over-year. FedEx (FDX Stock) said quarterly profit almost doubled after rate hikes and spiking volume helped lower the cost of delivering pandemic-fueled e-commerce purchases to residential addresses. FedEx had an operating margin of 7.1% with a net income of $1.23 billion. That represents a net income jump of 119% year-over-year. FedEx stated that freight supporting ground and express during peak time achieved the best second-quarter operating margin since 2006. In this video are my thoughts on FedEx and what is most likely to happen with support and resistance price points.

THE WEEK AHEAD: FDX, LEN, MU, CCL EARNINGS; XOP/XLE, IWM/RUTEARNINGS ANNOUNCEMENT-RELATED VOLATILITY CONTRACTION PLAYS (IN ORDER OF ANNOUNCEMENT): Here are the options-liquid underlyings announcing next week that I've culled down to 30-day >50% as candidates for volatility contraction plays: LEN (21/49/11.6%),* announcing Wednesday after market close MU (24/52/12.2%), announcing Wednesday (no time specified) FDX (29/53/11.9%), announcing Thursday after market close CCL (27/91/21.1%), announcing Friday (no time specified) Pictured here is a January 15th 17.5/27.5 short strangle in CCL which announces Friday, paying 1.36 as of Friday close with delta/theta of -4.86/4.84 with break evens wide of 2 times the expected move on the call side, and between the 1 and 2 x on the put. Although no time is currently specified, it is likely to announce before market open (because who, like, announces after Friday close?), so would look to put on a play in the waning hours of Thursday's session if you want to take advantage of Friday's post-announcement volatility contraction. EXCHANGE-TRADED FUNDS RANKED BY BANG FOR YOUR BUCK: XOP (21/60/16.3%)** GDXJ (15/44/12.9%) XLE (30/45/12.5%) KRE 924/41/11.1%) SLV (25/40/11.2%) GDX (16/38/10.7%) EWZ (15/39/10.6%) XBI (24/38/10.0%) BROAD MARKET EXCHANGE-TRADED FUNDS: IWM (25/30/7.8%) QQQ (23/30/7.6%) DIA (16/23/6.0%) SPY (16/23/5.6%) EFA (20/24/5.1%) TREASURY/BOND FUNDS: Adding a little bond/treasury section to here since I occasionally park what would otherwise be idle cash in short puts (See Post Below).
