It's the monthly jobs numbers today and they're not going to be pretty and will be possibly the tip of the iceberg as we head into May.

Good morning. It's only been since early 2022 since daily options have started trading on some market indices such as the Nasdaq and S&P 500. Traders now love these options, known as 0dte, short for zero-days-to-expiration. A trader can make an investment at the market open at 9:30 A.M., assured that it will expire at 4:00 P.M. Eastern time. These options have now started to account for over half of all options trades on some days. And, they're also starting to get the blame for unusual market moves. Last Wednesday's big market drop was attributed in part to a surge in demand for put options expiring just a few hours later, which caused market makers to hedge, and helped fuel a selloff. The jury is still out on whether that was truly the only factor at play. In a complex economy, it's unlikely. But traders using these products should be reminded of the risks – especially for those who were on the wrong side of that trade and took a big hit.
