$AI Mystery Buyer makes $800,000 end-of-week option bet
[C3.AI](http://c3.ai) reported earnings on 9/2 and results were mixed.
However, two days later (9/4), over 90K OTM call options contracts were purchased with a week to expiration across 3 strikes as follows:
45.8K 260911 $11C approx $595,400
30.5K 260911 $11.5C approx $180,300
14.1K 260911 $12 C approx $56,400
Combined total of \~$832,100 on calls with one week to expiration

As of close yesterday, the positions are still open and current:

Now we are three full trading days out from expiration, and edging up. SI is also 30%+ so if it does move it could go quick.
So who is it? Barron insider trading again before news breaks? A large fund hedging their bet? South Park, err, South American buying some FDs? Who knows, but I am copying the gamble
Positions:
250 260911 $11.5C
250 260911 $12 C
