Oracle has been a poster child for “AI profit taking” after nearly being cut in half since trading up to $345 on September 10. The euphoria in Oracle came after investors celebrated the news of their massive backlog of AI-related business. Evaluating the oversold conditions in ORCL, coupled with the encouraging TikTok news Friday for Oracle, I believe it is time to own this essential AI product and service behemoth. I want to use options to leverage the opportunity of a potential low having been made by Oracle. TikTok has finally signed agreements with three major investors (Oracle, Silver Lake and MGX) to form a new TikTok U.S. joint venture, ensuring that Americans will keep the ability to waste time scrolling ‘cat and dog’ memes on TikTok. Larry Ellison, Oracle’s co-founder, remains Executive Chairman of the Board and Chief Technology Officer (CTO), continuing to play an influential role in the company’s strategy, especially around AI and cloud. Ellison is also a close confidant of President Trump. Oracle is aggressively building AI-ready data centers and multi-gigawatt infrastructure, seemingly much faster than competitors. Oracle’s Remaining Performance Obligations (RPO) hit a record $523 billion in its second quarter fiscal 2026 earnings released last week, up almost 500% year-over-year, revealing massive locked-in future revenue from AI and cloud contracts…if it can deliver in a timely manner. ORCL 6M mountain Oracle common over the past six months. A strategic partnership with Nvidia in 2025 has vaulted Oracle up the AI innovation ladder, with Gen2 cloud infrastructure gaining traction for scalable, high-margin deployments. That all being said, is the bottom in? Not sure but, with an RSI level of 30, the stock is in oversold conditions, and I believe now is the time to define your risk and be bullish on this non-Mag 7 name. The Trade (Selling a Risk Reversal) Sold the 2/20/26 $180 ORCL Put for $9.25 Bought the 2/20/26 $200 Call for $10 This spread will cost an investor $0.75 or $75 per one put spread sold. ORCL was trading around $189 when the trade was executed. An investor must be comfortable (and have the cash) available in case the long position is exercised at $180. DISCLOSURES: Kilburg is long ORCL and sold the Risk Reversal above.
