Fear of missing out on the recent stock market rally is driving traders in the U.S. equity options market to lap up bullish derivative contracts at a hectic pace, further fueling gains for stocks, analysts said on Friday.
The rush into call options lifted the S&P 500 Index’s 1-month moving average of calls-to-puts to the highest in at least 4 years, according to Trade Alert data. The index is up about 15% year-to-date, while the tech heavy Nasdaq 100 Index has gained 39%. Some of the rush into call options has also helped fuel the rally, said Brent Kochuba, founder of options analytic service SpotGamma.
