Sell Criteo Puts for One Week 47% Gain

Sell to close the July 20, 2018 put on Criteo (NSDQ: CRTO) with a strike price of $30 at $4.35 or higher. Symbol (CRTO180720P30)

Book the 47% one-week gain in this bearish position. I am still very bearish on the group but like to book a nice gain when it presents itself.

There’s not much good news in the digital ad space this week. Facebook (NSDQ: FB) continues to weaken on new investigations into its sharing of user information. I believe the disruption in management focus and a pullback from advertisers will feed into Facebook’s counterparties, one of them being Criteo.

I will likely look for another entry point into this trade but book the gain now and we will revisit the idea.

Criteo quickly turned green after I issued my sell alert on the puts (it’s like they KNOW!). Hold firm with prices as I think the stock’s down days are not over.
Best,

That’s good because SNAP and OMC suddenly decided to get all uppity.

I chickened out yesterday, but with a big smile. Thanks again, Linda!

I took my dog walk perhaps a minute before the alert. 15 minutes later, what was likely around $4.35 was down to $4.00. And now even lower than that. So I set up to sell at limit $4.35. Stayin’ the course.

Linda, I was able to get out at $4.50 earlier today. I had left a GTC order to sell at $4.50 and it filled earlier this morning when the market was down. THX as always.

Another heads up on CRTO. Looks like I sold too soon. There is a story on the wire that Facebook will stop providing information from its platform to data brokers. This directly hurts Crtieo’s business which relies on information from Facebook.
Best,
Linda
