The S&P 500 hasn't moved more than 1% in a single day for more than a month. With major news out today, is this the day we see traders get active?

Microsoft stock surged on better-than-expected financial results for its latest quarter, putting the tech giant on track to hit a $4 trillion market cap.

Meta Platforms also reported earnings after Wednesday’s close. Coming into the earnings, the option market had priced the straddle at 42 points, or 6% of the stock price. That straddle price was cheaper than six of the past 10 post-earnings moves by Meta — meaning that the odds were theoretically slightly in favor of buying the straddle.
