Henry Schwartz, Cboe VP of Derivatives Market Intelligence joins Yahoo Finance's Josh Lipton to discuss how SpaceX (SPCX) options volume exploded on day one, shattering Meta’s (META) previous record with 1.8 million contracts traded.
It was a good day for the Magnificent Seven—at least some of them. Tesla stock ended Monday's session up 8.5%, perhaps riding the coat tails of SpaceX, which was up 7.1%. The two Elon Musk companies are tightly linked, jointly developing a chip fabrication complex in Texas.

Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg has urged his lieutenants to explore partnerships with the popular prediction markets Polymarket and Kalshi as his company builds a similar app, the New York Times said on Friday, citing three employees with knowledge of the matter. Meta and Kalshi did not immediately respond to requests for comment, while Polymarket declined to comment when contacted by Reuters. The social media company's executives have said Arena, Meta's new prediction market app under development, will differ from Polymarket and Kalshi, which accept real-money wagers, because it will instead rely on video-game-like "points", the report said.
