Current AISP snapshot

As of May 15, 2026, spot at $2.41, ATM IV 103.90%, IV rank 24.20%, expected move 29.79%. The bear put spread on AISP below is built from the same end-of-day chain, with strikes snapped to listed contracts and premiums pulled from the bid/ask midpoint at a 34-day expiry.

Why this bear put spread structure on AISP specifically: AISP IV at 103.90% is on the cheap side of its 1-year range, which favors premium-buying structures like a AISP bear put spread, with a market-implied 1-standard-deviation move of approximately 29.79% (roughly $0.72 on the underlying). The 34-day window matched to the front-month expiry keeps theta exposure bounded while still capturing the post-snapshot move; longer-dated AISP expiries trade a higher absolute premium for lower per-day decay. Position sizing on AISP should anchor to the underlying notional of $2.41 per share and to the trader's directional view on AISP stock.

AISP bear put spread setup

The AISP bear put spread below is built from the end-of-day chain, with each option leg priced at the bid/ask midpoint of its listed strike. With AISP near $2.41, the first option leg uses a $2.41 strike; additional legs (when the strategy has them) anchor to spot-relative offsets. Premiums come from the bid/ask midpoint on the listed AISP chain at a 34-day expiry; the cross-strike IV skew is reflected directly in the per-leg values rather than approximated. Quantity sizing assumes one contract per option leg (or 100 AISP shares for the stock leg in covered calls and collars).

AISP thesis for this bear put spread

The market-implied 1-standard-deviation range for AISP extends from approximately $1.69 on the downside to $3.13 on the upside. A AISP bear put spread caps both the risk and the reward of a bearish position; relative to an outright long put on AISP, the spread reduces the cost basis but limits the maximum profit to the strike width minus net debit. Current AISP IV rank near 24.20% sits in the lower third of its 1-year distribution, where IV often re-expands toward the mean; this favors premium-buying structures and disadvantages premium-selling structures on AISP at 103.90%. As a Technology name, AISP options can move on sector-level news flow (peer earnings, regulatory updates, industry-specific macro data) in addition to AISP-specific events.

AISP bear put spread positions are structurally moderately bearish; the modeled P&L assumes European-style exercise at expiration and ignores early assignment, transaction costs, dividends paid before expiry on the stock leg (when present), and the bid-ask spread on the listed chain. AISP positions also carry Technology sector concentration risk; news flow inside the sector (peer earnings, regulatory shifts, supply-chain headlines) can move AISP alongside the broader basket even when AISP-specific fundamentals are unchanged. Long-premium structures like a bear put spread on AISP are particularly exposed to IV-crush risk through scheduled events (earnings, FDA decisions, central-bank meetings) where IV typically contracts post-event regardless of the directional outcome.
