Options Spy | Affected by the industry's negative news, institutions sold Tesla 252 call options

The dismal start to the year continued, with Apple falling for three straight days. Mobileye warned customers that orders would fall below year-ago levels, sending its shares tumbling nearly 25%.

In terms of data, the U.S. ADP employment in December last year was 164,000, a new high since August 2023, while wage growth slowed again at the same time, and the number of Americans applying for unemployment benefits last week fell more than expected to 202,000, at a 2023 low.

Traders have been less enthusiastic about betting on a March rate cut after minutes of the Fed's December meeting, released on Wednesday, indicated that the benchmark rate was likely to remain at restrictive levels "for some time". Traders will next focus on Friday's U.S. nonfarm payrolls report and European inflation data to see if central banks have room to start cutting interest rates.

Autonomous driving technology company $Mobileye Global Inc.(MBLY)$ said it expects first-quarter revenue to fall about 50% from $458 million in the same period last year. The company noted that customer inventory overhang issues could have a "to a lesser extent" impact on revenue for the remainder of 2024. As a result, the Company expects consolidated revenue for 2024 (Q2 to Q4) to be roughly flat or up single digits compared to the same period in 2023. Customer inventories are expected to return to normal levels by the end of 2024. Tesla saw a large number of sell calls on the MBLY news:$TSLA 20240112 252.5 CALL$
