The take

The $55C is a recapture trade that is currently losing. Spot is under the 20-day and the 200. Silicon photonics and the CHIPS LOI are real — they are not a reason to sit a 13% OTM call through another down week.

Nov 11 is the event. If it cannot take 52 first, sell any bounce. Do not roll this. The foundry story can wait; this contract cannot.
