The mere mention of artificial intelligence, no matter how superficial its ties to a company, hypnotizes investors into a stock-buying frenzy that makes sharks devouring chum seem peaceful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

No one really knows if AI will really create anything profound, or if it is more proof of how corporate chieftains and their spin doctors constantly create narratives to entice investors to push their stock prices higher.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In fluid situations with indeterminate risk and reward, we are mindful of a lesson learned in the B.C. era\u2014Before Computers, that is. A wise investor often counseled prot\u00e9g\u00e9s to bet on the jockey if they were unsure of the horse. The lesson was that experienced executives know what to do to get the job done, regardless of the trend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That brings us to Thomas Peterffy, founder of Interactive Brokers<\/a> Group (ticker: IBKR), an electronic brokerage firm. He knows about investing, technology, and horses, and unlike some other corporate mandarins, he knows what it means to let one\u2019s actions speak for themselves. His stock isn\u2019t as widely followed as it should be, even though he is globally recognized as a brilliant trader and an architect of the modern securities markets<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Peterffy declined to reveal Interactive Brokers\u2019 AI plans, if any, to Barron\u2019s<\/em>, which is intriguing. He has typically been one of the first to use technology to advance and democratize trading, which leads us to believe that he likely has plans to make AI available to his customers. Interactive Brokers might just be an AI stock without an AI multiple.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Do you believe the stock market\u2019s range-bound tension is due for a violent resolution? Interactive Brokers potentially monetizes that idea, too. The company\u2019s sophisticated clients will likely respond en masse to whatever happens, and that should boost the company\u2019s profits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With the stock at $93.99, aggressive investors could sell the December $90 put option and buy the December $100 call option. The risk reversal\u2014selling a bearish put and buying a bullish call<\/a> with a higher strike price but similar expiration\u2014sets up investors to profit from rallies and to buy stock at lower prices. The position could recently be established at no cost. If the stock is at $105 at expiration, the call is worth $5.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The thesis, of course, could be wrong, and the stock could emerge as the financial equivalent of Palantir Technologies<\/a> (PLTR), which has failed to live up to investors\u2019 lofty expectations<\/a>. If the stock sinks, investors must buy it at $90 or adjust the put to avoid assignment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The December expiration provides time for the AI thesis to pollinate, or for Peterffy to reveal his plans. It would be incredible, for instance, if he unveiled a virtual-reality headset that allowed investors to surround themselves in an immersive financial experience of options, stocks, interest rates, news, and charts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the absence of such innovation, many market-moving events also will occur over the next few months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Economic data critical to solving the inflation puzzle that holds back the economy, and helps keep stocks locked in a trading range, will be released. Federal Reserve officials can be relied upon to create intraday volatility by jabbering about interest rates and economic data. And Interactive Brokers should release an earnings report in the middle of October.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Supercomputers with generative AI might already know the outcome. But the jockey and his horse seem like reasonable wagers for anyone who still makes decisions the old-fashioned way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
