Hey, short and quick video here on what

0:01

Nancy Pelosi is doing two stocks that

0:04

she just bought and I'm paying close

0:05

attention because obviously Nancy Pelosi

0:07

has been performing extremely well in

0:10

the stock market. So Nancy Pelosi just

0:12

bet up to $6 million on Intel and Uber

0:15

and she did this in a really interesting

0:16

way. She is using options. So she bought

0:19

call options and she specifically did

0:21

long-term call options. So we can see

0:23

here basically in a recent disclosure

0:25

filing Pelosi purchased up to $6 million

0:28

worth of call options on both Intel and

0:30

Uber. Now she used the same strike

0:32

price. She used a $50 strike price and

0:35

these options expire March 19th, 2027

0:38

for both Uber and for Intel. So I also

0:41

looked here on Reddit and basically this

0:43

call option that she bought is a leap

0:45

option. So if you're wondering if you

0:47

should move along with Pelosi. So

0:49

basically the Uber and the Intel trades

0:51

are leap options. Both of them are about

0:53

200 contracts. Uber is a $50 call option

0:56

expiring March 2027 and same thing for

0:59

Intel. Uber's currently trading for $72,

1:02

$74. Well, actually this morning I'm

1:04

seeing that it's already at $76. And

1:06

over the last one week Uber has had a

1:09

really nice week. That's basically right

1:11

here as soon as investors know that

1:13

Nancy Pelosi is doing something, they

1:14

like to follow where the money is going,

1:16

right? Because Nancy Pelosi is not

1:18

worth, you know, estimated two to $300

1:21

from, you know, her Congress job. It's

1:23

really, you know, pretty indirect. It's

1:26

through being a really good investor,

1:29

right? Really really good one, right? So

1:31

Uber's trading for $76 per share and the

1:34

call option I'm going to show you right

1:35

now that she purchased is essentially a

1:37

50 strike price. So this would be

1:40

categorized as a deep in the money call

1:43

option and has a high delta. So you can

1:44

even see here from this post, it pretty

1:46

much captures almost one-to-one movement

1:48

with the actual stock but costs a

1:49

fraction of the price of 20,000 shares.

1:52

So it's not exactly one-to-one but it's

1:54

pretty close to one-on-one. And that's

1:55

because an in-the-money call option, let

1:58

me show you here. So, the expiration is

1:59

on March, right? So, let's go over into

2:01

March 19th, 2027. The $50 call option,

2:04

I'm going to show you the delta on this.

2:06

Okay, so the delta is 91. Okay. So, what

2:08

delta is explaining here is when a stock

2:10

moves by $1, this option will move by 91

2:14

cents. That is what delta is. It tells

2:16

you how much the option moves for a $1

2:19

move within the stock, okay? So, if Uber

2:22

stock goes up by a dollar, this option

2:24

gains 91 cents. You might be thinking to

2:26

yourself, well, what's the benefit of

2:28

that, right? What am I really, you know,

2:29

getting here? Why don't I just own the

2:31

stock? Well, the thing is, when you buy

2:33

a call option, you can see the premium

2:34

right here. It is a lot cheaper than

2:36

buying the stock. Now, technically, this

2:38

is a riskier strategy because if Uber

2:40

goes down to 50 or below, this call

2:43

option would be literally worth zero.

2:45

Nada. Nothing. You can lose all your

2:47

money. But, on the upside, it's

2:50

basically like a leverage bet because if

2:51

Uber goes up a dollar, this one this

2:53

goes up 91 cents. That's less, right?

2:56

But, that's not the point. It goes up 91

2:58

cents on the premium, which is only $29.

3:01

So, instead of $1 divided by $76, it's

3:05

literally 90 cents divided by $29. So,

3:08

the return potential, as a percentage

3:10

return, is a lot higher if Nancy

3:13

Pelosi's trade here works out. If Uber

3:15

goes higher, let's say that Uber goes up

3:17

10, 20, or $30, this option right here,

3:21

in the case that Uber goes up by $30,

3:23

this option would also go up about 28,

3:26

29 dollars, right? Because it's almost a

3:27

one-to-one move. That means that this

3:29

premium would basically be not 29, but

3:32

58, which is essentially two times

3:34

higher than the current premium right

3:36

now. Whereas, if Uber stock goes up to

3:38

$100, which is a $30 increase, well,

3:40

Uber stock doesn't even go up 50%,

3:43

right? So, the whole point of a call

3:44

option, and why Nancy Pelosi is using

3:46

this strategy, is most likely she knows

3:48

something that most investors don't, or

3:51

she's making an aggressive bet here,

3:52

right? And the bet that she's using call

3:54

options will give her a greater overall

3:56

percentage return, right? So, she's

3:58

still scaling her portfolio, right?

3:59

Nancy Pelosi at 2 300 million dollars,

4:01

she's not done scaling. She's

4:03

continuing. So, this strategy right here

4:04

that goes out until March 2027 is also

4:07

powerful because look, the type of

4:09

information she has, we don't have,

4:11

right? Allegedly. We don't We don't know

4:12

what it is, right? But, the good news

4:14

about a longer-term call option is

4:15

there's a lot of time. So, a traditional

4:17

call option that people buy and they

4:18

kind of risk and gamble with in the

4:20

short term, that can go belly up, right?

4:22

That can go negative 100%. You can end

4:24

up losing all your money if you buy a

4:26

call option 1 week out. The stock

4:27

doesn't go up, right? So, in Uber case

4:29

or even Intel case, let's go over into

4:31

Intel. Let's cover where Intel's at and

4:33

the play that she has on Intel. But, if

4:34

the stock doesn't go up, then basically

4:36

what happens to the call option is it

4:38

starts to lose value, right? So, a call

4:40

option is a risky bet because if it

4:42

doesn't go in that direction, it starts

4:43

to lose value incrementally as time

4:44

passes and at expiration, it is

4:46

worthless if it's out of the money,

4:48

right? If the option is out of the

4:49

money. Now, here it's a very different

4:50

story because Pelosi's call option is in

4:52

the money. So, even if the stock doesn't

4:54

really do anything, she will lose money.

4:56

She will lose money because theta and

4:59

time decay will eat away at the option,

5:01

okay? But, the option will still have

5:03

some value because a $50 strike price

5:06

and for Intel it's at 127. So, even if

5:08

Intel does nothing or let's say it ends

5:10

at 120, the value of the call option

5:12

would still be 70, right? So, this is

5:14

what's called a deep in the money call

5:15

option. I covered this in my LEAPS

5:17

course, which I'm going to have at the

5:18

end of this video or down in the

5:19

description. My LEAPS course talks about

5:21

what a deep in the money call option is,

5:23

the benefits, and how you can use this

5:24

strategy to your own advantage to scale

5:26

and build your portfolio just like Nancy

5:27

Pelosi is doing. So, Nancy Pelosi

5:29

disclosed this position and that was on

5:31

June 23rd, so it was only a couple of

5:33

days ago. And this position goes out

5:34

until March, so there's basically kind

5:36

of, you know, a lot of time here for

5:37

investors to follow along with her. Now,

5:39

I don't really like following along with

5:41

other investors. I usually like to do my

5:43

own research, but when Nancy Pelosi she

5:45

a move, clearly the market does react to

5:47

that. Now, one reason I think that she

5:48

could be buying Uber, and I don't know

5:50

this information, this could be a rumor,

5:51

but most likely I think that something's

5:53

going to happen with the autonomous

5:54

vehicle robo-taxi bet. So, I think Nancy

5:57

Pelosi has some type of information that

5:59

could greatly benefit an Uber call

6:01

option. Now, here is the hesitation, by

6:03

the way, in this Reddit post, liquidity.

6:04

So, liquidity is essentially referring

6:06

to the bid-ask spread. So, let me

6:07

quickly explain to you how to look for a

6:09

call option that makes sense to begin

6:11

with because just because Nancy Pelosi

6:12

did something doesn't mean you should

6:13

just, you know, not do your own

6:14

research. You should still do your own

6:15

research. So, what would this look like

6:17

if you were to open up a trade on Intel

6:19

and you kind of want to follow along

6:20

with Nancy Pelosi, right? So, Intel is

6:22

trading for $127 per share and over the

6:24

last 3 months it's up 192%. I mean,

6:26

that's that's wacky. That's just that's

6:28

just that's insane. However, I wouldn't

6:30

really be surprised to see Congress

6:32

doing very, very well on their stock

6:34

bets, right? So, when I look at Intel at

6:36

127, hey, maybe this is a $200 stock,

6:39

right? So, let's go to trade Intel

6:40

options. My goal here is not to predict

6:42

what the price is. My goal here is to

6:43

show you how you could use the call

6:45

option to follow along with Nancy Pelosi

6:47

or just to buy call options on other

6:49

stocks that you deem to be a high-growth

6:51

company. So, you do your own research.

6:53

Now, Intel is at 127. If we ended up

6:55

buying a call option, I don't even think

6:57

you have to go for a $50 strike price.

6:59

You're going to get pretty much the same

7:01

benefits uh by going for something like

7:03

even like a 110. Like, if I expand this

7:04

110 right here, this is already a delta

7:06

of 88. That's already like very, very

7:08

high high enough. Because, look, by

7:10

buying 100 shares of Intel you have to

7:11

pay $12,700.

7:13

Okay, that's how much you have to put

7:14

up. Now, if you want to put up less

7:16

money, basically a 110 call option, you

7:18

can put up less than 2K, right? So,

7:20

instead of 11K, less than 2K. Great

7:22

benefit, right? And this is still an

7:24

in-the-money option. So, it still has a

7:25

lot of intrinsic value. Okay, intrinsic

7:28

value is basically how much a stock is

7:30

above the strike price. So, the strike

7:31

price is 110, Intel is at 127, that

7:34

would basically be a $17 intrinsic

7:36

value, right? And then, extrinsic value

7:38

is the amount of value that it has

7:40

that's not intrinsic, right? Not the in

7:42

the money value, but other factors.

7:44

Those other factors are volatility and

7:46

and time on the option. So, here this

7:48

option really has a lot of intrinsic

7:50

value. It has a ton of intrinsic value.

7:52

Our value here is $19.70. Intrinsically,

7:55

it's worth 17, so the difference is like

7:56

$2.50 essentially of extrinsic value,

7:59

which is like volatility and in time,

8:01

right? Now, this is a shorter-term call

8:03

option, right? So, let me show you a

8:04

shorter-term example, and then I'll kind

8:06

of show you a longer-term example as

8:07

well. So, a shorter-term example is you

8:09

got 5 days. I don't really like this.

8:11

Obviously, Intel has all sorts and all

8:13

kinds of bullish momentum. I mean,

8:15

anyone that's been in this stock or has

8:17

been following my channel on AI stocks

8:19

and semiconductor companies, you guys

8:21

know that basically this is a trend.

8:23

This is a hot trend, and these stocks

8:24

can run. They can run a lot. So, I

8:26

wouldn't be surprised to continue to see

8:28

a stock like Intel run or even Micron

8:31

because Micron Technology doesn't have

8:33

that much of a high PE ratio compared to

8:35

Nvidia, right? It's like four times

8:36

less. That means that Micron has a lot

8:38

of room to run if the valuation gap ends

8:41

up bridging. Anyways, the whole point is

8:44

if you think a stock is going to run, a

8:45

short-term call option can be useful. In

8:48

this example right here, if Intel goes

8:50

up by even $10 in the short-term, which

8:53

doesn't seem that crazy based off of the

8:54

high momentum market that we're in, then

8:56

this option would increase by $8.88,

8:59

right? Call it nine bucks. Call this 20

9:01

bucks. So, basically this option would

9:03

gain nine bucks and the capital that you

9:05

would have to put up is 20 bucks. That

9:07

as a percentage return is bonkers.

9:09

That's insane. Now, the downside is if

9:11

Intel doesn't go up, that's fine. This

9:13

option won't lose too much money, but if

9:15

it goes down, you are going to be losing

9:17

on this position. So, you see, a call

9:18

option is just a bullish bet. It's a

9:20

leveraged bullish bet, okay? So, do this

9:22

at your own risk. However, when you go

9:24

longer-term, it is a much better kind of

9:26

opportunity, in my opinion, because you

9:29

don't have as much short-term risk. So,

9:31

if I go for March 19th here, okay, and I

9:34

go for an option. Again, you don't need

9:35

to do 50 delta uh 50 strike price. I

9:37

mean, she's so so deep in the money.

9:39

$100 is already deep in the money. The

9:41

delta here is 77. You can get a little

9:43

bit deeper. The whole benefit of going

9:45

deeper is that you get more delta, and

9:47

more delta means you have more upside

9:49

whenever the stock moves up. However,

9:51

the lower the delta is, basically the

9:53

cheaper the premium. So, your actual

9:55

higher percentage return if you're

9:57

actually bullish is not by going deep in

9:59

the money. It is actually going out of

10:01

the money, right? So, if I actually go

10:02

for an out of the money option, and

10:03

Intel goes to like 200, then this out of

10:06

the money option is way way cheaper.

10:08

It's only worth like, you know, $32 in

10:10

premium, but your position here, if it

10:13

were to go to $200, you'd be in the

10:15

money by 50 bucks. So, it'd be worth at

10:17

least 50 in an intrinsic value. If you

10:19

still have time on the option left, it's

10:20

going to be worth a lot extrinsically as

10:22

well. So, going for out of the money

10:24

options can be very lucrative if the

10:27

stock ends up going up a lot, right? An

10:29

in-the-money option is just better in

10:31

the case that it is a bit lower risk if

10:34

the stock ends up going sideways. You

10:35

don't end up belly up, losing all your

10:37

money, right? Because an

10:38

out-of-the-money option, you can lose

10:39

all your money. An in-the-money option,

10:41

you already have intrinsic value going

10:43

in to the trade. So, Intel here at 110,

10:46

the break-even is going to be

10:47

essentially the 110 strike price, plus

10:49

the premium of $46.70.

10:52

So, your break-even here is 156.70.

10:54

Anyways, if you enjoyed this video, I

10:56

have a LEAPS free course here on

10:58

YouTube. It is going to be an amazing

11:00

use of your time because you can learn

11:01

how to use call options, LEAP options,

11:03

open and close, and manage strategy from

11:05

the very beginning all the way till

11:07

closing that strategy. That's the video

11:08

right here on the screen. It's very

11:10

important for you to watch it. Thanks so

11:11

much, and I'll see you over there. Make

11:13

11:14

in the next one.

Interactive Summary

This video analyzes Nancy Pelosi's recent investment strategy involving deep in-the-money long-term call options (LEAPS) on Intel and Uber, expiring in March 2027. The video explains the mechanics of these options, why they are used as a leveraged bet, the concept of delta, and how they offer a potentially higher percentage return compared to owning the stock directly, while also highlighting the risks and the importance of conducting individual research.
