SMCI is up. It pays to sell secrets
\> My question is, (besides diversification) why wouldn’t everyone drop every penny they have in this for the div? Because it is a poor investment. The past 12 months SMCY would have lost you about 9%, while SMCI is only down about .3%. Stock dividends are not free money. If you have 100k invested, and get a 1k dividend, now you have 99k invested. You gained nothing.
The risk is you're giving up the money you'd have if you just invested in the NASDAQ 100 directly, rather than a fund that's selling options from holdings within that index. Very easy to see: https://totalrealreturns.com/s/JEPQ,QQQM Same concept with SMCY versus SMCI.
SMCI has closed the entire gap after crashing due to selling illegally to China Nothing ever happens ever

BYND POET SMCI which one to play this morning?
$SMCI quietly setting up again 👀 After that brutal selloff, it’s been putting in a steady base and just started pushing higher off the lows. Volume is creeping back in, and it’s now testing a key resistance zone around the low $30s. If this breaks clean, there’s room for a solid momentum move. AI infrastructure demand isn’t going anywhere, and SMCI is right in the middle of that trend. This is one of those names that can move FAST when it catches a bid. Who else is watching this setup?
AI needs data centers and cooling. VRT is probably the most popular large cap I think? For microcaps TSSI and PPIH are interesting. I'd stay away from SMCI. NFA.
Keep an eye on SMCI with a 20% move in a week. Earnings on Cinco de Mayo! Could send this up another 20%
Has anyone been noticing the SMCI move? It’s up almost 20% in the last week. Regardless of lawsuits which merit little to nothing. Slowly climbing back. With Earnings on Cinco de Mayo!
I’ve had HTZ calls for a couple weeks now and I’m doing well but it’s a slow crawl upward. I was expecting more today with CAR up so much. Time to start looking for some Thursday/Friday puts on CAR if things look toppy. I could use another epic Friday crash like SMCI with 0DTE going 100x lol
Its 2027 SMCI is priced at fair value, it’s trading at 290 a share.
SMCI 17b market cap on 30b rev plus they are masters of fraud and masters of sleaze. May 5th earning, may 15 calls so u dont get crushed. This is financial advice of the highest order.
You cry about fraud and insider trading wishing you could do it too, yet you don’t own SMCI calls. May 5th will be a fraud masterclass on earnings that’ll retest ATH. 🙏
May 15 SMCI $30 $32 $35 calls. If you don’t have at least 5k in each - like me - you ain’t reached peak degeneracy. Whore house or poor house, we’ll know on May 5th.
SMCI the most underrated AI play after HP enterprise?
Only ticket on list is SMCI 👌
The thresholds I have landed on after tracking this across a few thousand entries: * Below IVR 30: basically skip. Premium is too thin to cover directional risk on a .30 delta short. You are selling vol that is already cheap and hoping it gets cheaper. Expected value drops hard in this bucket and the expired worthless rate looks great right up until one name moves 2 sigma and eats six months of premium. * IVR 30-50: tradeable but be selective. Works best when IVR is *rising* into the entry, not drifting down. Direction of IVR matters almost as much as level. * IVR 50-70: the sweet spot for 30-45 DTE premium selling. Market is paying you enough for the vega exposure and the expected move tends to overstate realized. * IVR 70+: rich but there is almost always a reason. Earnings, guidance, M&A chatter, sector rotation. I still take these but I size smaller and check the catalyst calendar first. Blind IVR chasing into a known event is how people blow up. One more variable worth pulling in if you have it: IVR percentile relative to the underlying's own history versus absolute IV. A stock like SMCI at IVR 40 is a completely different animal than KO at IVR 40. Normalizing matters. Phew.
So apparently I'll lose the 400$ I made the last 2 weeks swinging some stocks 😭 I have 40 shares of SMCI at 28.50 average price, good luck to me, let me sell at 34 and I promise I won't touch the market until the end of the year.
Guys, i just got dropped off by aliens. Anal probes were really not that bad but horrible food Anyway i asked for stock tips and they said they loaded up on SMCI to 35
I mean the everyone knows Carvana, ,Tesla, SMCI, Allbirds is cooking the books or making up stuff. Yet they all made massive gains these last few days or today the exception being allbirds. Does anyone believe think the unemployment numbers or CPI is really what is reported and the market always pumps when those go out.
SMCI still has some room. Stock is down because some old school boomer traders still think massive crimes are bearish
Will this POS SMCI go over $30 anytime soon?
SMCI no contrabandio nada, fueron 2 empleados + el contrabandista que sigue prófugo. Es igual que en mi empresa, hace 10 años 4 empleados colocaron un TPV ficticio y robaron durante meses +100.000,00$.
Good point, didn't think of that, just the very big news that SMCI was smuggling chips
Yep it's called snuggling $2.5b worth by SMCI
i just need SMCI back at $50
SMCI has erased the smuggling loss lmao
I sold the bottom on SMCI and I would do it again lol
Looks like AI hypersonic growth is DONE. The moment they tell u they’re acquiring customers - that’s sell the news (nothing to add). If Japan, Saudi, UAE are buying or investing - then Buy - watch history of SMCI - 3 quarters of hypersonic growth and then dead! This is kitchen sink quarter.

Yes, it makes sense at expiration — but only if you actually want to own the shares. At expiration, deep ITM calls have virtually no time value left, so you're not giving anything up by exercising versus selling. The math is basically the same either way. The practical difference is just mechanics: exercising means you're buying 100 shares at $23 per contract and need the capital to settle it. Selling the call gives you the same intrinsic value in cash without touching the shares. The real question isn't "should I exercise" — it's **"do I want to own SMCI stock going forward?"** If yes, exercise and hold. You're effectively buying shares at $23 regardless of where the stock is trading. If no, just sell the calls before expiration. Don't let them auto-exercise into a position you'll immediately want to sell — you'll pay commissions on the stock transaction for no reason. One thing to watch: if you're holding through earnings with the intent to expire, make sure your broker's auto-exercise threshold won't cause a problem if the stock moves sharply. Also worth confirming whether your account has the buying power to take assignment — some brokers will force-close ITM options before expiration if you don't have sufficient capital to cover the shares.
Usually it makes more sense to sell the calls than exercise them because you capture any remaining extrinsic value instead of leaving it on the table. At expiration though there's no extrinsic left so exercising vs selling is basically the same thing, just mechanics. If you actually want to own SMCI shares long term then exercising makes sense, but if you just want the profit, sell the contracts.
TSM crushed earnings. Now they’re down, NVIDIA is down, AMD is up, SMCI is up.
SMCI is the most undervalued stock in tech. Should be trading almost 5x this price if not for the fraud. Someone opened huge position for may 15 10 days after earnings. Im betting it’s an insider with more fraud. That’s why I too bought a shitload of may 15 calls. Take me the moon scammers who somehow also have a legitimate business that prints money but also love to do shady shit just for the love of the game. 🚀🚀👺
the exercise-at-expiration question is mostly moot -- by then there's no time value left, so selling to close vs exercising both realize the same intrinsic. your broker auto-exercises ITM options at expiry anyway. the bigger issue with your plan: holding through earnings exposes you to IV crush. SMCI's implied vol is probably elevated right now specifically because earnings are upcoming -- that premium is already priced into your $23 call. when earnings print (good or bad), IV can drop 40-50% the same day. if the stock only moves 5-8%, the vol crush can easily offset the move and your call ends up worth less than before. if you're bullish on direction, consider selling before earnings to capture that vol premium, then re-entering after the crush if the thesis still holds. holding through earnings with a long call is essentially betting on a big enough move to overcome the IV drop.
So that SMCI story last month was a nothing burger
I wrote this too. A really good example of what you’re describing right now is **Super Micro Computer Inc**. ### Why this one stands out * **Massive deviation from its “normal” range:** Over the past year it ran up aggressively (AI/server hype), then **collapsed ~50%+**, and is now **rebounding sharply**. * **Volatility outside its historical behavior:** This used to trade like a fairly steady mid-cap hardware company. Now it’s behaving more like a high-beta AI proxy. * **Recent move is abnormal:** The last few weeks show a **fast +20% type rebound** after a steep drawdown — that kind of V-shaped recovery is not typical for this stock historically. ### What’s driving the “out of norm” behaviour * **AI infrastructure demand** (NVIDIA-adjacent ecosystem) * **Concerns about accounting / margins / sustainability** (caused the drop) * **Positioning unwind → re-accumulation** (why it’s bouncing) ### Why it’s worth following (not blindly buying) This is the key bit — stocks that break their “character” often signal something bigger: * Either **a structural re-rating** (new long-term range forming) * Or **a temporary dislocation** (mean reversion coming) SMCI is currently sitting right between those two narratives. ### How to think about it If you’re tracking it like an athlete tracks pacing blocks: * Old “range” = steady endurance pace * Current behavior = surging, fading, surging again → **not settled yet** That’s where opportunity usually lives — but also risk. --- If you want, I can give you: * 2–3 more under-the-radar names showing similar “range breaks” * Or a quick framework to systematically find these setups yourself (it’s actually pretty repeatable)
The price movement of this stock is insane, I’ve seen it go +5 to 10% then reverse to -5 to 10% intraday. Seems like SMCI price pumps way back in 2022
Reminder SMCI caught selling to China, analysts havent priced that in so their earnings in may gonna have a huge surprise beat. This is financial advice of the highest order. Never bet against a scammer.📈
SMCI scamming and scheming created the perfect opportunity to go all in and ride the wave to 60+. Calls are cheap and the set up is rich. The best way to beat a scammer is to join them and get out early.
Loading up more SMCI and OIL
SMCI is climbing back so hard lol
Congrats to SMCI guy who bought calls at 19
if you invest in SMCI you get what you deserve
The stock search gets easier with a screen: price < $50 (100 shares ≤ $5k), options OI > 1k at standard strikes, bid-ask ≤ $0.20 at 30-delta. That's structurally how SOFI and SMCI ended up on your list — they clear it. GIS doesn't; the spread eats premium fast on a 1-2 contract position. On INTC: standard options are 100 shares per contract. At 50 you can't write a CC yet. Either wait for a pullback to complete the lot at a price you're comfortable with, or redirect that capital into a fresh CSP on something from your screen. What DTE are you targeting on the puts?
The rotation idea of 4-6 tickers is solid — more than that and you're basically running a fund with extra steps. One thing worth considering with SMCI/SOFI/GIS: they're not created equal from an IV standpoint. SMCI and SOFI tend to carry elevated IV, which means better premium but also more whipsaw risk on your shares. GIS is the opposite — steadier, but you're not getting paid much. Selling puts to acquire is a legit entry strategy, just watch where earnings land relative to your expiry.
Shady and probably incompentant governance (no CFO for a long time because no one wants the job), low margins, legal investigations, lawsuits, almost delisted a few times. What's not to love? Also it's not that cheap for a cyclical stock. I mean if you want AI exposure for cheap, micron's forward PE is like 4 or 5 with 75% margins as opposed to SMCI's 10 or so with 6% margins last time I checked.
SMCI volume and movement sus👀 news coming ?
Don´t know why people think SMCI was a bad stock. It´s up nearly 15 % in my port and I´ve been holding for under a month...
so nvidia said no PC company meaning its SMCI?
SMCI 3x were going to the moon baby
If I was a SMCI bagholder, this is exactly the kind of rumor I would start to exit.

What are we thinking about SMCI? Nobody cares about illegal activities, right?
SNDK parabolic price action kinda reminds me of SMCI parabolic price action Stay away from S tickers
yes same.. I also get SMCI in mind when I see SNDK.. someone big is pumping it and they will offload it all on retail at one point..
The next of SMCI scandal...
Why is INTC 65 and SMCI 25! Make IT MAKE SENSE
I’m up 30% on both. Got in today but have been watching SMCI for a bit.
I’m up on SMCI calls . Pos - 5 $27.50 exp. 4/17 8 $30.00 exp 5/8
you don't buy company that has legal issues as SMCI - you want to stay clear when president of US is impulsive. it be part of the DELL business most likely
NVDA is negotiating to buy a PC company for over a year. I bet it's DELL but it could be HP or SMCI.
If NVDA buy SMCI I retire
Bro SMCI sold all their secrets to Russia and China and they’re going up and you think it’s smart to play puts wtf
SMCI CEO and Founder is Taiwanese
NVDA should buy SMCI not dell, do it for my port nvda!
SMCI would make the most sense, with the recent investigation it's price is a steal and partners with their Tec perfectly. They aren't going to write 'AI server rack company' because it would be way too obvious.
This is what I find strange as well, the conspicuous wording kinda rules out SMCI even though they’re probably the best option considering their market cap is way cheaper right now and their water cooled servers are top of the line (just low margin, low stock, low market share vs DELL)
Me looking suspiciously at SMCI after that NVDA announcement
Good info, that kinda just points to Dell. Market cap of 125b with market dominance in the AI server industry. Feels kinda off to me, if I was Jensen I would buy the cheaper company with better tech which would be SMCI or HP with their water cooled servers and lower market share that NVDA can propel to the top just by association alone
HP market cap is only 3.6b right now, they have water cooled servers racks just like SMCI. Seems like a more practical choice than DELL with a market cap of 125b.
Just a guess but the actual post said ‘PC company and server company’. SMCI only deals with servers so idk. Sounds more like Dell or HP.
My new strategy is to buy when an article comes out that decimates a stock. I'm up soo nicely on SMCI and SNAP
I bought puts on SMCI after it rejected 22EMA before market close. I wonder what it'll be like at market open.
WHY IS QBTS AND RGTI MARKET CAP THE SAME AS SMCI!!??? SOMEONE… the MATH IS NOT MATHINGGGGGG. SMCI HAS REAL REVENUE, products INCOME !!!!
Pretty sure SMCI did a 10-1 stock split within the past two years when it hit 1100.
HOW IS INTEL 62 with NEGATIVE PROFIT AND MARGINS AND SMCI IS 23 WITH BILLIONS INCCOME AND positive MARGINS
How am I breakeven right now on my SMCI calls, what is wrong with me. Is this shit going to $30 or not.
Michael Burry bearish on PLTR lmao New SMCI style pump confirmed
