If oil prices continue to move up, the small-cap oil plays should appreciate the most. McMoRan Exploration Co. (MMR) may see extraordinary appreciation. The CEO believes there is a huge reserve of oil in the Gulf of Mexico under where much of the shallow wells were drilled. The CEO is one of the world's great geologists, and has a multi-decade track record of finding significant natural resource reserves in places others never thought to look. The CEO is so excited about the opportunity that he personally purchased 500,000 shares at about this level in March, 2009. If his find is real, s...

Earnings straddle for McMoRan Exploration Co. (NYSE: MMR)? Graphic_rating_buy MMR

I am liking how a possible straddle of McMoRan Exploration (MMR) is setting up. The share price is nicely settled around an at-the-money position at $15. McMoRan has an average movement of -5.41% immediately following earnings. This makes the July and August contracts each look attractive. Of note, someone seems to be liking the stock ahead of earnings as it is up 5.19% in the last 3 days and every single option traded today was a Call.

<> Let’s say we enacted the strategy at 3:59 pm today. We would have purchased 10 July $15 Call contracts (MMRGC) and 10 Put contracts (MMRTC) e<><>...
