The options were expecting about a $9.00 move in the stock and according to current prices, the move is going to be outside of that. The ‘at the money’ straddle was just about $9.50 too. Today’s move was basically unlikely, according to what the options were implying yesterday. LNKD is probably going to open up at a new all time high. Bullish fundamentals are paired with bullish management.
Analysts are moving around their PTs. BMO Capital Markets maintained LNKD at market perform, but raised its $130 PT. JEF held on to its buy rating and increased its PT to $170.
