Wall Street traders think next week's earnings report from Nvidia is likely to give the chip stock another boost, according to one interpretation of options market pricing.
A Piper Sandler research note on Thursday from Benson Durham and Melissa Turner said short-term options on Nvidia look expensive, but that high cost is tilted toward options that serve as bets the stock will rise.
So, expensive NVDA options in general don't connote very much investor angst heading into the release," the Piper Sandler report said.
The market optimism about Nvidia extends beyond the immediate period after the earnings report, according to Piper Sandler.
The Piper Sandler researchers did not take a fundamental position on Nvidia's earnings report.
