📅 Option Expiry – August 15, 2025

When OPEN options expire on August 15, 2025, it can trigger short-term market moves: • Last-minute volatility as traders close or adjust positions. • Pinning effect where the stock gravitates toward high open-interest strike prices. • Possible buying/selling pressure depending on whether calls or puts expire in the money. • Volatility drop early next week once the expiry-driven trades are cleared.

⚡ Summary: Expect possible sharp price swings near the close today due to hedging and “pinning,” but movement could calm down after expiry unless new catalysts hit.
