Unpacking the Latest Options Trading Trends in Expedia Group

Shares of Expedia Group, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EXPE#NASDAQ">EXPE</a>) are climbing following reports <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/10/41383838/expedia-shares-rises-by-around-6-whats-going-on">of a potential buyout.</a>
With the stock now overbought, there's a strong chance it could reverse and trend lower. That&#8217;s why our team of trading experts has selected it as our Stock of the Day.
Typically, a stock remains within its usual trading range. However, when investors and traders turn emotional and aggressively buy, they can drive the price above this range. In such cases, the stock is considered &#8220;overbought.&#8221;
Many trading strategies and styles are based on the concept of reversion to the mean. If a stock is overbought, people may start to sell it and this could push the price lower.
There are dozens if not hundreds of ways to measure momentum. They are called indicators. It is important to understand that they are different ways of measuring the same thing. New traders can overcomplicate things by studying too many of them.

Some traders have had success by using and mastering just a few of these indicators.
<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="530" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/08144115/expe-chart-1024x530.webp" alt="" class="wp-image-638424" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/08144115/expe-chart-1024x530.webp 1024w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/08144115/expe-chart-300x155.webp 300w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/08144115/expe-chart-768x397.webp 768w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/08144115/expe-chart-1536x795.webp 1536w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/08144115/expe-chart.webp 1585w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>
The red line on the chart is called a Bollinger Band. It is two standard deviations above the 20-day moving average. This is important because according to statistics and probability theory, 95% of all trading should be within two standard deviations of the mean.
If a stock exceeds this threshold, as Expedia has done, it will draw sellers into the market. They will be expecting a reversion back towards the average and their selling could put pressure on it.
On the bottom part of the chart is the Relative Strength Index (RSI). It is another way to measure momentum. If the blue line exceeds the horizontal red line, it indicates overbought conditions. As you can see, that is the case now. This could also draw sellers into the market.
Other popular momentum indicators include Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD), the Commodity Channel Index (CCI), and Stochastics (TAS). These are all available on <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/">Benzinga Pro</a>.
Many rookie traders make things more complicated than they need to be. Part of this is using too many indicators. It may make sense for some traders to only use a few and to become familiar and comfortable with them.

The S&amp;P 500 index surged past the 6,000-point milestone, setting fresh record highs, and small-cap stocks are poised for their best weekly performance since April 2024 as investor optimism surrounding the &#8220;Trump trade&#8221; continued to fuel a strong risk-on sentiment by the end of a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets">wild week in the market</a>. 
All major U.S. indices posted modest gains in midday trading, with the Dow Jones Industrial Average leading slightly, soaring beyond the 44,000-point mark. The blue-chip index is set for its best weekly performance in over a year.
Friday's rise in the S&amp;P 500 was powered by the utilities and real estate sectors, which had lagged post-election. Tech stocks took a breather following Thursday's rally.
Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) surged 7%, pushing its weekly gains beyond 27% and propelling its market cap past $1 trillion. 
This move now places every "Magnificent Seven" tech stock in the trillion-dollar club, with the group's combined market cap topping $17 trillion.
Treasury yields held steady, while the dollar strengthened in response to the Federal Reserve's Thursday 25-basis-point rate <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/24/11/41823887/powell-dismisses-talk-of-resignation-after-trump-victory-says-policy-is-still-res">cut to 4.5%-4.75%</a>.
Gold softened, eyeing its worst week since late May, as both silver and oil dropped over 2% on the day. Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) edged up 0.8%, extending its weekly gains to over 11%, marking its best week since July.

<h3>Expedia Group P/E Ratio Analysis in Relation to Industry Peers</h3>
The P/E ratio is used by long-term shareholders to assess the company's market performance against aggregate market data, historical earnings, and the industry at large. A lower P/E could indicate that shareholders do not expect the stock to perform better in the future or it could mean that the company is undervalued. 
Expedia Group has a lower P/E than the aggregate P/E of 33.63 of the Hotels, Restaurants &amp; Leisure industry. Ideally, one might believe that the stock might perform worse than its peers, but it's also probable that the stock is undervalued. 

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2024/1731011414_1.png" alt="Guage" />

In conclusion, the price-to-earnings ratio is a useful metric for analyzing a company's market performance, but it has its limitations. While a lower P/E can indicate that a company is undervalued, it can also suggest that shareholders do not expect future growth. Additionally, the P/E ratio should not be used in isolation, as other factors such as industry trends and business cycles can also impact a company's stock price. Therefore, investors should use the P/E ratio in conjunction with other financial metrics and qualitative analysis to make informed investment decisions.
