Spotlight on BlackRock: Analyzing the Surge in Options Activity

Despite Donald Trump&#8216;s claims of a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/02/43639754/ukraine-floats-land-swap-with-russia-as-trump-signals-peace-push">productive call with Russian President</a> Vladimir Putin and his assertion he could end the Ukraine war &#8220;quickly,&#8221; betting markets indicate skepticism about his ability to achieve a resolution within his first 90 days in office.
What Happened: Polymarket, a prediction market platform, shows a low probability of Trump ending the conflict in that timeframe.
The <a href="https://polymarket.com/event/trump-wins-ends-ukraine-war-in-90-days/trump-wins-ends-ukraine-war-in-90-days?tid=1739383148959">probability</a> of Trump ending the war in that timeframe has risen to 34%, up 11% from prior levels.
Meanwhile, another market <a href="https://polymarket.com/event/russia-x-ukraine-ceasefire-before-july/russia-x-ukraine-ceasefire-before-july?tid=1739383422747">assessing</a> the likelihood of a Russia-Ukraine ceasefire before July sits at 57%, reflecting a moderate expectation of diplomatic progress.
Trump, in a <a href="https://x.com/elonmusk/status/1889722028120285217">post</a> on his social media platform Truth Social, detailed a "lengthy and highly productive" phone call with Russian President Vladimir Putin, discussing Ukraine, energy, artificial intelligence and the strength of the dollar.
He highlighted the historical cooperation between the two nations during World War II and emphasized the need to "stop the millions of deaths taking place in the War with Russia/Ukraine."
He further stated that he and Putin &#8220;agreed to work together, very closely, including visiting each other's nations&#8221;, and that negotiations would begin immediately. 
Also Read: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/02/43667642/coinbase-expected-to-post-strong-earnings-as-trading-volume-hits-multi-year-high">Coinbase Expected To Post Strong Earnings As Trading Volume Hits Multi-Year High</a>
Trump said he plans to contact Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy to inform him of the conversation, adding, &#8220;Millions of people have died in a war that would not have happened if I were President.&#8221;
The Polymarket odds suggest a cautious but growing belief that Trump could secure a peace deal within his first 90 days in office. 
While still a minority view, the 34% probability marks an increase from earlier skepticism.
Despite Trump&#8217;s optimism, skepticism remains about whether he can realistically achieve a ceasefire within such a short timeframe. 
Historical precedent, ongoing military escalations, and geopolitical complexities all make a rapid resolution uncertain.
Some analysts argue that Trump&#8217;s direct engagement with Putin may signal potential diplomatic shifts, but that Zelenskyy's stance and broader NATO considerations will be key factors in determining whether the conflict can be resolved soon.

Will Donald Trump Help Broker A Peace Deal In Ukraine? Don't Be So Sure, Polymarket Trader Say

Reddit Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RDDT#NYSE">RDDT</a>) is set to report its fourth-quarter earnings on Wednesday. Wall Street expects 25 cents in EPS and $405.26 million in revenues as the company reports<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/calendars/earnings?tickers=RDDT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"> after market hours</a>.
The stock is up 331.23% over the past year, 31.1% year-to-date.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Reddit&#8217;s Rally Faces A Musk-Sized Distraction Ahead Of Q4 Earnings</h2>
As Reddit gears up for its fourth-quarter earnings, tensions with billionaire Elon Musk are escalating. Musk accuses Reddit of enabling threats against his employees (Musk owns, or co-owns, Tesla, SpaceX, X, The Boring Company, Neuralink and xAI). 
The feud has already led to subreddit bans and a wave of protests, but investors seem unfazed—Reddit shares have skyrocketed 330% over the past year. With Ark Invest trimming its stake and Musk stirring controversy, all eyes are now on whether earnings will keep the stock's momentum intact or if this drama sparks volatility.
Let&#8217;s look at what the charts indicate for Reddit stock and how the stock currently maps against Wall Street estimates.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Reddit Stock Moderately Bullish Ahead Of Q4 Earnings</h2>
Reddit stock, at $213, is experiencing a moderately bullish trend, with its share price above key long-term moving averages. However, the stock is encountering selling pressure, which raises the risk of future bearish movement. 
<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><a href="https://bzresearch.myclickfunnels.com/benzinga-pro-content-webinar-registration/?utm_source=BZprocontent021225&amp;t=be2bearmibe3na1"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="631" height="486" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/12114310/Screenshot-2025-02-12-at-8.17.35-PM.png" alt="" class="wp-image-779168" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/12114310/Screenshot-2025-02-12-at-8.17.35-PM.png 631w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/12114310/Screenshot-2025-02-12-at-8.17.35-PM-300x231.png 300w" sizes="(max-width: 631px) 100vw, 631px" /></a></figure>

Reddit stock is slightly below its eight-day simple moving average (SMA) of $216.53, generating a bearish signal in the short term.
Despite this short-term weakness, Reddit stock remains above its 20-day SMA of $198.28. It&#8217;s also above its 50-day SMA of $178.49, both of which signal a bullish outlook. The stock is also well above its 200-day SMA of $98.39, further reinforcing its positive technical stance.
The Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) indicator, at 13.23, suggests that Reddit stock is still in a bullish phase. However, with a Relative Strength Index (RSI) of 63.24, the stock is approaching overbought levels, which could indicate that investors should watch for potential pullbacks or increased volatility.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Reddit Analysts See 4% Downside</h2>
Ratings &amp; Consensus Estimates:<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/RDDT/analyst-ratings" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"> The consensus analyst rating</a> on Reddit stock stands at a Buy currently with a price target of $159.91.

Revenue of&nbsp;$2.599 billion, which increased&nbsp;3%&nbsp;year over year on a GAAP basis, missed the consensus of&nbsp;$2.63 billion, and adjusted EPS of&nbsp;$1.40 (+49% Y/Y) <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/contracts/25/02/43631684/fidelity-national-information-tumbles-on-q4-revenue-miss-lackluster-outlook-details" rel="noreferrer noopener">beat&nbsp;the street view of&nbsp;$1.36</a>.
The company expects FY25 revenue of&nbsp;$10.435 billion&nbsp;to&nbsp;$10.495 billion&nbsp;versus the consensus of $10.6 billion and adjusted EPS of $5.70 – $5.80<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/calendars/guidance" rel="noreferrer noopener"> against the Street view of $5.72</a>.
FIS projects first-quarter of 2025 revenue of $2.485 billion – $2.510 billion (vs. $2.568 billion est.) and adjusted EPS of $1.17 – $1.22 <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/earnings" rel="noreferrer noopener">(vs. $1.28 estimate)</a>.
BofA Securities analyst Jason Kupferberg trimmed the price forecast from $96.00 to $87.00 while retaining a Buy rating.
The analyst says that shares are down sharply due to weaker-than-expected banking growth for fourth-quarter FY24/first-quarter FY25.
Management cited late-quarter headwinds, including a 1% contract adjustment impacting recurring Banking revenue and a 3% decline in non-recurring revenue due to a delayed license deal and a $20 million reversal of a termination fee from a canceled bank merger, per the analyst.
The analyst writes that Banking revenue growth for 2025 is expected to accelerate to 3.7%-4.4%, driven by a 150bps boost from strong 2024 sales (+9% YoY) and ~60bps from the Dragonfly acquisition, partially offset by lower non-recurring revenue.
The analyst adds that recurring revenue is projected to outpace overall segment growth, while non-recurring and professional services are expected to be modestly slower.
Moreover, Kupferberg writes that WP revenue is expected to be a 20-30bps headwind, and Capital Markets revenue growth guidance of 6.5%-7.0% is slightly below Investor Day targets (7.5%-8.5%) due to a lower acquisition contribution (~140bps vs. 150-200bps expected) and a higher 2024 base.
The 2025 FCF conversion guidance of 82%-85% reflects expected improvements in AP and AR management. With the banking segment missing, investor focus has shifted to FCF performance, adding the analyst.

Fidelity National Information's Growth To Accelerate In Q2 After A Slow Start In Q1: Analyst

Verizon Communications, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VZ#NYSE">VZ</a>) released earnings for the fourth quarter of fiscal-year 2024 last month. Following the earnings report, Goldman Sachs hosted an investor meeting with key members of Verizon. Here&#8217;s what you <a href="https://www.benzinga.com//node/43187225">need to know.</a>
What To Know: CFO Tony Skiadas highlighted improving trends in revenue and cost takeout, with wireless becoming a larger portion of the business, driving high incremental margins and boosting EBITDA. On the cost side, Verizon pointed to savings from an outsourcing deal and the reduction of legacy product and network costs, Goldman Sachs analyst James Schneider wrote in a note.
Furthermore, despite investor skepticism, Verizon expects the wireless market to grow by 8 to 8.5 million net additions in 2025. The company also anticipates year-over-year improvement in its own net additions, supported by efforts to reduce postpaid churn and strengthen prepaid performance, the analyst said.
Additionally, the company expects its AI Connect offering to generate over $100 million in revenue through dark and lit fiber sales. Schneider noted that Verizon also sees opportunities in edge computing and inference, using its data centers and retrofitted central offices for power, space and cooling.
&#8220;We believe Verizon's execution in its core wireless business continues to improve &#8211; with positive subscriber net additions and better prepaid revenue trends likely to be key drivers for 2025,&#8221; the Goldman analyst said
&#8220;We also highlight that Verizon's Business segment continues to notably outperform, and we believe this inflection in wireline EBITDA is sustainable and will not likely serve as a drag to overall results going forward.&#8221;
Goldman maintained a Buy rating on Verizon on Tuesday with a 12-month price target of $52, as the analyst expects the company to sustain revenue and EBITDA growth over the medium term.

Verizon Analyst Sees Improving Trends As Company Sizes Up AI Opportunity

Avis Budget Group shares are trading lower following a Q4 EPS miss.

Needham analyst John Todaro initiated coverage on CleanSpark Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CLSK#NASDAQ">CLSK</a>) with a <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/CLSK/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">Buy rating </a>and announced a Price Forecast of $20.00.
The analyst noted that Cleanspark is the second-largest bitcoin miner by hash rate and third largest by bitcoin stack.
CLSK maintains the lowest General &amp; Administrative costs per EH in the analyst&#8217;s universe, with operational leverage expected to improve in 2025 as hash rate increases to 50 EH by second-quarter and 63 EH by mid-2026.
According to the analyst, the company has an attractive valuation, trading at the deepest discount in the analyst&#8217;s coverage on an EV/EBITDA basis.
The analyst expects this discount to narrow as CLSK reduces its reliance on equity issuances, with minimal dilution expected in 2025 due to full funding for near-term hash rate targets.
Strong balance sheet with <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/02/43565602/cleanspark-shares-are-on-the-rise-today-whats-going-on" rel="noreferrer noopener">approximately $660 million</a> in net cash plus BTC, offers growth flexibility.
Additionally, CLSK is poised to unlock yield opportunities in 2025, which could generate over 5% returns on its ~10,000 BTC holdings, concluded the analyst.
Price Action: CLSK shares are trading lower by 0.11% at $10.26 at the last check Wednesday.

CleanSpark's Attractive Valuation And Bitcoin Stack Makes It A Buy, Analyst Says

Cryptocurrency company Coinbase Global (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/COIN#NASDAQ">COIN</a>) could highlight record profitability and user metrics when the company reports fourth-quarter financial results <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/earnings">after market close Thursday.</a>
Earnings Estimates: Analysts expect Coinbase to report fourth-quarter revenue of $1.83 billion, up from $953.8 million in last year's fourth quarter, according to data <a href="https://bzresearch.myclickfunnels.com/benzinga-pro-content-webinar-registration/?utm_source=BZprocontent021225&amp;t=be2bearmibe3na1">from Benzinga Pro.</a>
The revenue estimate would mark the highest quarterly total for Coinbase since the fourth quarter of 2021 if the company hits the figure. This would also mark four straight quarters of revenue of $1.2 billion or more.
Coinbase missed analysts revenue estimates in the third quarter, but has beaten estimates in seven of the last 10 quarters overall.
Analysts expect Coinbase to report fourth-quarter earnings per share of $1.71, up from 51 cents per share in the fourth quarter. The company has beaten analyst estimates for earnings per share in seven straight quarters.
Coinbase has reported profitability in four straight quarters and a profit in the fourth quarter would make each quarter in 2024 profitable.

What Analysts Are Saying: A surge in crypto asset prices and trading volumes in the fourth quarter could help Coinbase's financials, HC Wainwright analyst Mike Colonnese said in a new investor note.
The analyst reiterated a Buy rating and raised the price target from $255 to $330.
"President Donald Trump's re-election in early November proved to be a shot in the arm for the crypto industry, as the event catalyzed a massive rally in digital asset prices and trading volumes in 4Q24," Colonnese said.
The analyst said Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) hit all-time highs in the fourth quarter along with spot trading volumes hitting records in the quarter. U.S. Bitcoin ETFs had net inflows of over $16 billion in the fourth quarter, the analyst added.
Coinbase is the custodian of many of the U.S. Bitcoin ETFs.
Colonnese also said Ethereum (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/eth/usd">ETH</a>) had "strong gains" in the fourth quarter, up 28% quarter-over-quarter.
Colonnese said Coinbase is likely to be a beneficiary from the fourth quarter's record in spot volume for centralized exchanges, which surpassed previous all-time highs set back in May 2021.
"Our revised 4Q24 revenue and earnings estimates are now above consensus forecasts, as we expect Coinbase to deliver a top and bottom line beat this Thursday after the close."
He raised fourth-quarter estimates and fiscal 2025 estimates on the heels of the record quarter and new White House administration.
Colonnese's 2025 revenue estimate goes from $5.3 billion to $7.3 billion. His 2025 earnings per share estimate goes from $2.77 to $8.29.
Here are other recent <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/COIN/analyst-ratings">analyst ratings on Coinbase</a> and their price targets:
<ul>
<li>Needham: Maintained Buy rating, lowered price target from $420 to $330</li>
<li>Mizuho: Upgraded from Underperform to Neutral, raised price target from $250 to $290</li>
<li>Oppenheimer: Maintained Outperform rating, lowered price target from $358 to $334</li>
<li>Goldman Sachs: Maintained Neutral rating, lowered price target from $397 to $340</li>
<li>Piper Sandler: Maintained Neutral rating, raised price target from $245 to $285</li>
</ul>
Key Items to Watch: Among the key items to watch will be commentary on what President Donald Trump and the new White House administration means for the cryptocurrency sector and the company.
The company acknowledged the 2024 election as one of its biggest upcoming catalysts the last time it reported quarterly results. With Trump now sworn in as president, the company could provide more bullish color on what this means.
Bitcoin hit all-time highs after the election and the fourth quarter will likely see many records for Coinbase due to a surge in prices and trading volume.
Investors and analysts will also be looking for color on how January performed with more all-time highs for Bitcoin hit and Trump officially sworn in.
Another item to watch could be on the company's international expansion. Coinbase recently announced its registration as the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/02/43453542/coinbase-says-its-become-uks-largest-crypto-exchange-after-securing-regulatory-approval">largest cryptocurrency exchange</a> in the United Kingdom. Coinbase also recently <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/01/43302540/coinbase-shares-trade-relatively-flat-wednesday-platform-to-launch-in-argentina">received regulatory approval</a> to launch in Argentina.
COIN Price Action: Coinbase stock is up 2.1% to $272.45 on Wednesday versus a 52-week trading range of $137.13 to $349.75. Coinbase stock is up 85% over the last year.
For comparison, Bitcoin is up 95% over the last year.

Trader Notes: Trader Altcoin Sherpa <a href="https://x.com/AltcoinSherpa/status/1889631518206636528">noted</a> that while most AI coins have retraced recent gains, Ai16z and ARC are holding up better than the rest. 
He warns that if Bitcoin drops below $90,000, another pullback in AI tokens wouldn't be surprising.
Another trader <a href="https://x.com/S4mmyEth/status/1889615655344779744">pointed</a> out that smart money has been accumulating Ai16z, with net inflows of $963,000 in the past week. 
Fartcoin and ARC have the highest inflows, but they are also seeing significant exits, suggesting high turnover rather than steady accumulation.
Ai16z&#8217;s net positive inflows could indicate confidence in its future restructuring.
Narrative trader ElonMoney highlighted that Ai16z, FXN, and YNE led in net inflows over the past 24 hours.
