United Therapeutics (UTHR) $47.74 +1.04%
United Therapeutics (UTHR) adds 48 cents to $47.74 and a Sep 45 – 50 put spread trades on the Silver Spring, MD drug-maker, 1500X on ISE. Sentiment data indicate that $2.35 was collected to open a new position. Shares gained 3.3 percent on 7/28 after earnings were reported, but it’s been mostly downhill from that point forward and UTHR is off 16.8 percent month-to-date. Today’s spread trader might be expecting the stock to recapture $50 through the September expiration and/or is a willing buyer of the stock at that price.
