Analyzing the options chain of ZION Zions Bancorporation prior to the earnings report this week, I would consider purchasing Puts with a HKEX:25 strike price and an expiration date of 2024-1-19, for a premium of approximately $4.50. If these options prove to be profitable prior to the earnings release, I would sell at least half of them.
I am interested to hear your thoughts on this strategy.
