Big Call Buying in Popular Health Care Stock: Najarian

Pete Najarian is always looking for unusual options action. And when he finds something, he can’t keep it to himself.

This time Najarian’s proprietary heat seeker has identified bullish call buying in Pfizer .

“All the way out to December I’m seeing a seller of the December 20 puts and a buyer of the December 24 calls,” he says. “And the volume was quite strong, 33,000.”

That suggests that by the third week in December, institutional investors expect the stock to trade above 24. Also during the same time horizon, they're betting the stock won't break below 20.

“Health care has already run but this trade suggests the run in Pfizer isn’t over yet,” he says.
