As of April 11, 2026, 4:17 p.m. EDT: Options activity suggests a mixed sentiment. The calls for near-term expirations show limited positioning with ATM strikes, indicating possible consolidation or wait-and-see attitude. However, the puts for 2026-06-18 have some OI at lower strikes, which could imply caution or potential downside protection. The overall options data does not strongly signal a clear direction for the near-term price movement.
