The options flow for May 20, 2026, showed strong multi‑sector activity, heavily concentrated in large‑cap technology and semiconductors.
$AMD led with consistent call sweeps and splits, including a $15M buy sweep at the $500 strike expiring January 2028 and multiple trades near the $420 strike totaling over $25M in premium — signaling sustained long‑term accumulation.
$NVDA followed closely with repeated call sell sweeps around $190–$220 strikes for December 2027 and 2028 expiries, each near $15M in premium, suggesting profit‑taking after its recent rally.
Other key names included $AMZN with a $9.9M call sell sweep at $277.50 and $MPC with a $14M call sell sweep at $90, adding exposure from retail and energy players. $GOOGL and $MDB continued seeing balanced buy flows in the $6–$7M range, reflecting steady positioning in large‑cap growth.
Overall tone: heavy but mixed activity—strong buying in $AMD offset by profit‑taking in $NVDA—indicating continued rotation rather than broad risk‑off sentiment heading into late May.

Markets don't move in a vacuum-they follow a seasonal calendar. 🗓️
The Sector Rotation & Seasonality heatmap tracks a decade of historical monthly average returns across major sectors.
Instead of fighting institutional money flows, use this historical blueprint to see which industries traditionally experience strong macro tailwinds in April versus heavy headwinds in September.
By mapping out the cyclical nature of sectors like Technology, Energy, and Financials, you align your longer-term portfolio allocations with proven macro rhythms. 🗺️📊
