Open Interest Against May 15th 2026 Option Contracts
FedEx option prices can potentially be used to forecast stock returns because most option chains provide information not only about the current prices but also about the future conditions in FedEx's lending market. For example, when FedEx's puts are not actively trading or completely missing in the marketplace, investors can use it to internalize expected shorting costs. So if an investor is writing a put option on FedEx, he or she must hedge the risk by shorting FedEx stock over its option's life.

In The Money vs. Out of Money Option Contracts on FedEx
Analyzing FedEx's in-the-money options over time can help investors to take a profitable long position in FedEx regardless of its overall volatility. This is especially true when FedEx's options are deep in the money. These options can be identified using deltas that are over 0.75. Deep in-the-money FedEx's options could be used as guardians of the underlying stock as they move almost dollar for dollar with FedEx's stock while costing only a fraction of its price.
FedEx In The Money Call Balance
When FedEx's strike price is surpassing the current stock price, the option contract against FedEx stock is said to be in the money. When it comes to buying FedEx's options that are 'In the Money' or 'Out of the Money', the choice depends on your outlook for the underlying security, financial situation, and what you are trying to achieve.
While 'out-of-the-money' option contracts written on FedEx are typically viewed as the more aggressive, there are potential upsides to purchasing these types of options contracts. For one, the cost to buy an 'Out of the Money' option is lower than the cost to buy an 'In the Money' option. This cost-benefit is due to the fact that at the time of the purchase, 'Out of the Money' contracts have no intrinsic value. So, while the potential for a 100% loss is more significant, the cost and risk to enter the trade are lower.
FedEx Current Options Market Mood
FedEx's open interest and total value indicators provide investors with the necessary information to digest the overall options buildup for its expiring contracts. In addition, it helps FedEx Stock's traders understand whether a recent fall or rise in the market is unreasonable and if the time has come to take contrarian positions. These ratios are calculated based on options trading volumes and current open interest.
Put-to-Call Open Interest
Put-to-Call Volume
Most options investors, including buyers and sellers of FedEx's calls and puts, are not very successful. It is estimated that an average options trader loses somewhere between 80% to 90% of the time. FedEx's option open interest and volume spread between outstanding puts and calls are regarded by many investors as reliable indicators of the overall future market direction.
Rule 16 of the current FedEx contract
Base on the Rule 16, the options market is currently suggesting that FedEx will have an average daily up or down price movement of about 0.0313% per day over the life of the 2026-05-15 option contract. With FedEx trading at USD 369.23, that is roughly USD 0.12. If you think that the market is fully incorporating FedEx's daily price movement you should consider buying FedEx options at the current volatility level of 0.5%. But if you have an opposite viewpoint you should avoid it and even consider selling them.
Purchasing FedEx options can give investors a meaningful hedge against losses and, therefore, could be used conservatively to decrease the volatility of your portfolio. However, many options could also amount to little more than gambling, significantly enhancing your overall portfolio risk. One simple example of these aggressive strategies is the sale of "uncovered" FedEx calls. Remember, the seller must deliver FedEx stock to the call owner when a call is exercised.
FedEx Option Chain
When FedEx's strike price is surpassing the current stock price, the option contract against FedEx stock is said to be in the money. When it comes to buying options that are ITM or OTM, the choice depends on your outlook for the underlying security, financial situation, and what you are trying to achieve.
