Southwest Airlines, a prominent player in the Passenger Airlines industry, traded approximately 29,557 contracts, which represented roughly 3.0 million shares or 42.3% of its average daily volume of 7.0 million shares over the past month, according to InvestingPro data. The $25.50 strike put option due in October 2023 was particularly active as indicated by LUV’s trailing twelve-month trading history. The airline’s market cap stands at 15.78B USD, with a P/E ratio of 26.91. Despite trading near its 52-week low, the company holds more cash than debt on its balance sheet, and its strong earnings should allow management to continue dividend payments, as per InvestingPro Tips.

JPMorgan Chase’s options volume reached 36,682 contracts, equivalent to about 3.7 million shares or 41.2% of its average daily volume of 8.9 million shares over the past month. Notably, the $150 strike call option for October 2023 was significantly active.
