Apr 11, 2026 - Apr 12, 2026, the 'September 30, 2026' option surged from 19.5c to 36.5c. This was likely driven by short-term concentrated buying due to localized liquidity imbalances or rumors, triggering another severe logical inversion against the December option.
Mar 30, 2026 - Apr 1, 2026, the 'September 30, 2026' option surged from 36c to 57c. As Q1 ended, aggressive capital rotation into the Q3 thesis caused concentrated buying, leading to a severe liquidity imbalance and pricing distortion that pushed its price above the December option.
Mar 17, 2026 - Mar 18, 2026, the 'September 30, 2026' option surged from 42.5c to 57.5c. This sharp rally was likely driven by the expiration of the Q1 thesis (March option nearing zero), causing capital to aggressively rotate into Q3, identified as the '1-year post-funding' sweet spot. This concentrated buying created a liquidity imbalance, temporarily pushing its price above the December option.
Mar 16, 2026 - Mar 18, 2026, the 'December 31, 2026' option rallied from 39.5c to 53.5c. While significantly recovering, it lagged behind the September surge, creating a logical inversion. The market priced in a Q3 launch with such high conviction that it momentarily neglected the time value of the Q4 backstop.
