Options Spotlight: Allergan

Looking for a company to keep you eye on? This week’s edition of Options Spotlight takes a look at ^AGN^ – a struggling technical performer that has garnered the attention of the bulls.

The firm is a leading maker of eye care and skin care products; it also produces best-selling pharmaceutical Botox. Allergan also sells implants used in breast augmentation and weight-loss surgery. Its products are sold in 100 countries via direct sales and distributors.

In the Options Spotlight, I shine a light on what’s happening in the options world. In the case of Allergan, call activity has been brisk on the shares as investors attempt to call a bottom to the security’s downtrend. What’s more, options players aren’t the only ones looking for a rally in the shares. For a closer look at Allergan and its sentiment backdrop, go to schaeffersresearch.com.
