Earnings Volatility Watch: These 10 Stocks Could Swing 30% Or More This Week

Some of the biggest potential market moves this week aren’t coming from the usual high-profile names. Instead, options pricing is pointing to extreme uncertainty in a group of under-the-radar stocks heading into earnings.

Implied moves measure the size of the price swing — up or down — that options traders expect immediately after earnings. Using Benzinga Pro, here’s a look at 10 stocks with implied moves of roughly 30% or more ahead of their upcoming earnings reports this week.

Protecting Cash With The Xtrackers US 0-1 Treasury ETF

The Federal Reserve isn’t done cutting interest rates, which means investors may need to overhaul their cash strategy. One way is through the Xtrackers US 0-1 Year Treasury ETF (TRSY). This ETF, which boasts an expense ratio of 0.06%, tracks the performance of the ICE U.S. Treasury Short Bond Index, investing in T-bills with maturities between one month and one year and a minimum outstanding face value of $300 million.

So why a T-bill ETF? U.S. treasuries have the full faith and credit of the U.S. government. Plus, the U.S. Treasury market is very liquid. Since maturation is between one month and a year with T-bills, they are less sensitive to interest rate changes. Let’s not forget that T-bills are exempt from state and local taxes.

On This Day In 1999…

Yahoo announced its acquisition of GeoCities in a stock deal valued at roughly $3.6 billion, marking one of the most high-profile mergers of the dot-com era. Despite losing money at the time, GeoCities was one of the most visited websites in the world, with tens of millions of users creating personal homepages on the platform. The acquisition reflected Yahoo’s belief that massive traffic and online communities would eventually translate into advertising dominance. In hindsight, the deal is often cited as a symbol of late-1990s tech exuberance, as GeoCities was ultimately shut down less than a decade later.
