LIVE: This Signal Flagged GFS Before +195% — Here’s 5 More Stocks to Watch Now

In Today’s Masters in Trading: Live LIVE at 11: This Buyback Setup Delivered +195% — Here’s the 5 Stocks Setting Up Now Most people see the headlines around corporate buybacks and believe they’re all about “returning capital to shareholders.” But there’s a whole other dynamic unfolding under the surface. A setup lifted straight from the Masters in Trading playbook. Because corporate buybacks are really about how aggressively a company is stepping into its own stock — and whether that activity actually matters relative to its size. A $500 million buyback sounds big until you realize it’s a rounding error for a $200 billion company. But that same $500 million in a small-cap? That’s a completely different story. That’s where things start to move. When we screened for buybacks relative to market cap, a very different watchlist emerged from the earnings names I put on your radar this week. Five names where the size of the buyback actually matters — where it can create real pressure on the stock. And when you pair that with what we’re seeing in the options market, that’s where the real edge shows up. Take GFS. Unusual options activity flagged it early — over 15,000 call trades, open interest building, volume spiking over 300x normal levels. We followed that signal using a structured approach — not a blind long call, but a defined-risk call spread. It was the perfect setup for us. We liked the risk-reward setup. And we got into the trade at a lower cost basis using a structured trade setup. That trade turned into a +195% return in just 107 days. Not because we guessed direction. But because we read the tape correctly — and structured the trade to take advantage of it. That’s exactly what we’re breaking down in today’s episode of Masters in Trading LIVE. I’ll show you how we evaluate stock buybacks the right way, the checklist we use to separate real signals from noise, and the exact setups we’re watching right now where capital is already moving.
