MARA shares moved higher as traders piled into call options, with call contracts clearly outnumbering puts and overall options activity signaling a bullish mood despite rising volatility. The surge in options trading came alongside a notable jump in implied volatility into the upper range, suggesting investors are bracing for larger price swings.
In contrast to the upbeat options action, Cantor Fitzgerald trimmed its 12-month price target on MARA to $10 from $11. The cut shows some analyst caution on the stock’s longer-term upside, even as short-term trading sentiment has turned more optimistic in the options market.
