Is one guy buy long dated puts in highly value AI tech stocks really that big of a deal?

I don't think so.

I bought some long dated COHR calls after Q2 earnings when their so so reports caused COHR stock to drop. Now they're doing great.

$2,960 of COHR March 2026 $130 calls purchased last August are now worth $13,720. 4-5 months to go!

Feel free to analyze my trade for as long as you like......

Those puts are basically lottery tickets on a crash, and his filings are only a snapshot. He does that from time to time. Cannot say for sure but suspect the vast majority of his fund was his and family money, and maybe a few friends. I doubt Scion ever had many if any outside investors of note.

For the fun of it I looked at the 6 month chart for PLTR $50P '27 leaps. On Sept 22, 18.8K traded, and on Oct 24 and 27 a total > 50K traded, so those are the most likely days he bought them, and average price would have been below $2 in total.
