Unusual Activity Report
This daily report focuses on three key components that can lead to market momentum: unusual options activity, insider buying, and institutional sponsorship. By scanning for these signals each day, we uncover potential stock movements driven by notable trades, insider transactions, and institutional investments. Using advanced algorithms and proprietary research methods, we sift through vast amounts of data to identify unique opportunities, offering timely insights highlighting emerging market momentum.
Disclaimer: All data and information presented in this report are sourced from publicly available materials intended for informational purposes only. The content is not a recommendation to buy or sell securities and should not be relied upon as financial advice. Readers are encouraged to conduct their own research before making any investment decisions.
Standout Options Trades
This section highlights notable options trades reflecting significant sentiment—bullish, bearish, or mixed—characterized by high-dollar-value transactions or large trade sizes exceeding prior open interest. When open interest rises from the previous day, it often indicates the creation of new positions rather than the closing of existing ones, suggesting a fresh outlook on the underlying stock or ETF.
For instance, call buying generally signals an expectation of upward movement, while selling calls suggest the trader anticipates the price will stay below a certain level. Put selling reflects confidence that the price will hold above the strike, implying stability. In contrast, put buying may reveal a bearish outlook or serve as a hedge against a larger bullish position elsewhere.
This report highlights large, unusual options trades identified for their size and potential impact, representing individual sentiment rather than broad market consensus. These trades are informational and are not intended as buy or sell signals. They reflect noteworthy activity observed during the trading day and should be viewed as one part of a broader analysis.
Options Flow Analysis: Trading Day 2025-6-18
The following analysis focuses on the Stock Options Flow Leaderboard for the trading day 2025-6-18. Each section highlights significant institutional activity, providing sentiment, key observations, and market expectations based on the data.

Institutional Spotlight: New Filings Highlight Targeted Accumulation Across Healthcare and Consumer Sectors
Institutional activity over the past week revealed a strategic wave of fresh buying across several mid-cap and small-cap names, led by some of Wall Street’s most recognizable hedge fund managers.
HILL PATH CAPITAL LP, under the leadership of Scott Ross, disclosed a commanding position in SeaWorld Entertainment (SEAS) with 27,264,596 shares, translating to an impressive 49.60% ownership stake. This level of control signals deep conviction in the company’s long-term value and strategic trajectory. The move places Hill Path in a dominant shareholder position, likely granting significant influence over corporate governance and future capital allocation decisions.
In the biotech space, INTEGRATED CORE STRATEGIES (US) LLC, led by Israel Englander, filed for a 5.20% stake in Astria Therapeutics (ATXS), with 2,937,803 shares. This newly reported position suggests confidence in the company’s development pipeline or anticipated catalysts. Similarly, TWO SEAS CAPITAL LP, headed by Sina Toussi, initiated a meaningful position in Indivior (INDV) with 12,072,398 shares, equating to 9.70% ownership. The scale of the investment hints at expectations for stabilization or upside within the specialty pharmaceutical space.
REDWOOD CAPITAL MANAGEMENT, under Jonathan Kolatch, disclosed a 5.10% stake in EchoStar (SATS), acquiring 7,944,841 shares, indicating interest in the satellite communications sector amid ongoing restructuring efforts. Meanwhile, Boaz Weinstein’s SABA CAPITAL MANAGEMENT entered Mexico Fund (MXF) with 774,024 shares, marking 5.29% ownership, a move likely tied to macro positioning or arbitrage strategies in emerging market closed-end funds.
A particularly notable purchase came from GLENVIEW CAPITAL, managed by Larry Robbins, which took an 8.70% stake in Butterfly Network (BFLY), acquiring 19,634,914 shares. The investment underscores rising institutional interest in next-generation imaging and diagnostic technologies. Also in fintech, RIMA SENVEST MANAGEMENT, run by Richard Mashaal, initiated a position in LendingClub (LC) with 5,748,093 shares (5.00% ownership), signaling growing confidence in alternative lending platforms.
POINT72 ASSET MANAGEMENT LP, led by Steve Cohen, made two aggressive filings: 7,831,425 shares in ADC Therapeutics (ADCT) for a 7.00% stake, and 4,000,000 shares in Xilio Therapeutics (XLO) for 7.20% ownership. These filings suggest a high-conviction bet on the oncology space from one of the industry’s most active players.
Lastly, John Paulson’s PAULSON & CO INC returned to the spotlight with a renewed stake in Bausch Health Companies (BHC). The firm disclosed ownership of 32,791,702 shares, representing 8.90% of the company, further reinforcing Paulson’s longstanding involvement and potential thesis on valuation recovery.
