$HSI(HSI)$ Ah, the classic HK market dilemma this week: is it going up, down, sideways, or just out to lunch? When in doubt, I will straddle myself like a financial contortionist. Yes, you've got it right: same strike, same expiry—it's like trying to hedge your bets on whether your cat will come home with a mouse or just the existential dread of another Monday.
So, here's the plan:
I will pick a call option in case the market shoots to the moon. 🚀
And a put option in case it decides to dig its own grave. ⚰️
Basically, "I don't know where this thing is headed, but I'll be there, either way." I'll have the markets covered, up or down—it's the financial equivalent of wearing sunscreen on a cloudy day. Better safe than sorry!
Of course, if the market decides to yawn and stay flat, both my options might take a leisurely stroll to zero. But hey, straddling is like preparing for the storm while secretly hoping it rains just a little bit. After all, sometimes not knowing is half the fun!
