Opce na polovodičové ETF naznačují opatrnost investorů před výsledky Nvidie

Obchodníci na opčních trzích se připravují na celoodvětvovou volatilitu, když výrobce čipů pro umělou inteligenci Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA) ve středu zveřejní své výsledky, přičemž objem obchodů s defenzivními opčními kontrakty na významný ETF v odvětví polovodičů je vysoký.

U VanEck Semiconductor ETF, největšího ETF v oblasti polovodičů s aktivy v hodnotě přibližně 22 miliard dolarů, se podle údajů Trade Alert za posledních 10 dní denně zobchodovalo přibližně 2,4 put opce na každou call opci, což je nejdefenzivnější obchodování za posledních přibližně 10 měsíců.

Call opce dávají právo koupit akcie v budoucnu za pevnou cenu, zatímco put opce dávají právo prodat akcie za danou cenu.

„Nákup put opcí na SMH před zveřejněním výsledků Nvidia odráží rostoucí obavy z potenciální volatility celého sektoru po zveřejnění zprávy,“ uvedl Chris Murphy, spoluzástupce vedoucího derivátové strategie ve společnosti Susquehanna Financial Group.

V úterý se podle údajů Trade Alert do 15:00 ET (19:00 GMT) zobchodovalo přibližně 105 000 put opcí oproti asi 16 000 call opcí.

V jednom pozoruhodném obchodě jeden investor minulý týden koupil 50 000 put opcí na SMH, které by ho ochránily před poklesem akcií ETF o přibližně 10 % pod 220 USD do konce května.

Nvidia tvoří přibližně pětinu aktiv semi ETF, ale díky své dominanci na trhu umělé inteligence má vliv tohoto výrobce čipů větší než jeho váha ve fondu, uvedli analytici.

AUD/JPY. Analysis and Forecast
06:01 2026-01-12 UTC--5
Exchange Rates analysis

The AUD/JPY pair has maintained a confident upward momentum for the second consecutive day and, at the start of the European session on Monday, is rising toward the round 106.00 level, reaching a new high since July 2024. The current news and fundamental backdrop generally supports the bullish scenario and indicates that the path of least resistance for the pair is to the upside.

The Japanese yen remains under pressure amid uncertainty regarding the timing of the next interest rate hike by the Bank of Japan and rising tensions in relations between Tokyo and Beijing. Last week, China deepened its dispute with Japan by imposing restrictions on the export of dual-use goods, including a number of rare earth elements. This increases risks to supply chains for Japanese manufacturers and puts additional pressure on the yen, thereby supporting further gains in AUD/JPY.

Another source of uncertainty is Japan's domestic political backdrop. According to Yomiuri, Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi is considering the possibility of holding early parliamentary elections in the first half of February. This increases political risks and strengthens expectations of further yen depreciation in the near term.

In contrast, the Australian dollar is receiving support from expectations of further monetary policy tightening by the Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) in the foreseeable future. The RBA rate outlook provides an additional positive impulse for AUD/JPY and generally confirms a favorable short-term outlook for the pair. However, given cautious sentiment in global markets, investors may want to approach the opening of new long positions carefully.

At the same time, the prevailing geopolitical backdrop—including the US invasion of Venezuela, threats by US President Donald Trump to use military force in response to unrest in Iran, the White House's persistent push to acquire Greenland, as well as the ongoing Russia–Ukraine conflict—continues to support investor nervousness. Such a risk configuration could strengthen the Japanese yen's status as a safe-haven asset and simultaneously act as a restraining factor for the risk-sensitive Australian dollar, which in theory may limit the potential for further upside in AUD/JPY at the current stage.

From a technical perspective, the pair is trading above all major indicators and has reached the round 106.00 level, which has become an obstacle to further growth. Oscillators on the daily chart are positive, but the Relative Strength Index is close to overbought territory, suggesting the possibility of some consolidation or a corrective pullback.
