How the Smart Money Flies With Southwest Airlines (LUV) Stock Options
Investors with a shorter-term outlook may find an opportunity in Southwest Airlines (LUV). Last week, Deutsche Bank upgraded LUV from a Hold to a Buy rating and raised its 12-month price target significantly, from $28 to $40. This reflects growing confidence in the airline's strategic initiatives and their potential to drive meaningful growth. Easily unpack a company's performance with TipRanks' new KPI Data for smart investment decisions Receive undervalued, market resilient stocks right to your inbox with TipRanks' Smart Value Newsletter From an investment perspective, the current narrative surrounding Southwest may offer sufficient justification for considering exposure to LUV stock. Notably, the $40 price target allows for flexibility over a standard 12-month horizon, giving the investment thesis time to develop. Additionally, equity investments do not expire; while they can decline in value, they retain their intrinsic potential over time. With options, it's a whole different ballgame, which is why I don't think it's helpful to consider narratives or even financial performance and projections. The investing ecosystem focuses mainly on the 'why' of an opportunity. With options, the focus is on the 'how' — how much, how fast, how likely. Probabilities represent the most crucial aspect of trading derivatives, as options eventually expire. Therefore, whatever thesis you have must be positionally accurate within the allotted time period. As such, consistently successful options strategies require specific, granular data. In this regard, traditional analytical methodologies can be distracting. Still, if you're willing to let go of convention, a bullish options strategy on LUV stock is currently in play. What's most important about understanding the discipline of trading is that the market represents a dependent event; that is, future price action depends on prior price behaviors, volume, news, positioning, sentiment, liquidity stress, and a host of other catalysts. Essentially, the price of LUV stock or any other security is influenced by a prior chain of events. As such, it's imperative that traders treat the market not as a fresh shuffling of the cards, as though every trade setup is an independent event. Rather, the deck is already in motion, reflecting the news and catalysts that have been publicly revealed or exposed. Subsequently, market participants who keep track of the count (so to speak) have a tremendous advantage. Regarding LUV stock, over the past two months, the security printed a '6-4-D' market breadth sequence: six up weeks, four down weeks, with a net negative trajectory across the 10-week period. Using an AI-based algorithm, I'm able to determine that this sequence occurred 48 times in the trailing 10 years. More importantly, in nearly 67% of cases, the following week's price action results in upside, with a median return of 3.19%. Given that LUV stock closed at $33.38 on Friday, if the 6-4-D pattern's implications pan out as projected, the security may hit $34.44 in short order, perhaps within a week or two. If the bulls maintain control of the market, a push above $35 wouldn't be unreasonable. What makes the above setup so compelling is that, as a baseline, LUV barely features a positive bias. On any given week, the chance that a long position will be profitable is only 51.2%. That's calculated by taking the number of positive weeks divided by the total number of weeks in the dataset. Basically, the 6-4-D sequence improves the odds from a coin toss to a 67/33 wager in favor of the bullish speculator. If you're a numbers person, you're incentivized to take a shot here. Those interested in rolling the dice may consider buying the 33.50/35 bull call spread expiring June 20. This transaction involves purchasing the $33.50 call and subsequently selling the $35 call, for a net debit paid of $66. Should LUV stock rise through the short strike price at expiration, the maximum reward is $84, a payout of over 127%. Fair warning, this trade will be tight. Based on prior trends, the median positive performance from the 6-4-D sequence will have LUV stock trading around $34.70. That's more than enough to exceed the aforementioned trade's breakeven price of $34.16. However, it does fall a bit short of the $35 target. Granted, median performance also means that LUV stock can perform better than expected or worse. The risk here is multi-dimensional. While the chance of upside is higher, the magnitude of upside represents more of a guessing game. What could break the deadlock is that the $35 level is almost certainly a psychologically significant price target. Therefore, it wouldn't be surprising for the bulls to attempt to push toward that level, making the 33.50/35 bull spread attractive. Turning to Wall Street, LUV stock carries a Hold consensus rating based on six Buys, seven Holds, and four Sell ratings acquired over the past three months. The average LUV price target is $31.38, implying almost 6% downside risk over the next twelve months. Southwest Airlines is emerging as an increasingly compelling investment opportunity. For traders focused on shorter-term gains, however, LUV stock may be even more attractive in the near term. While its baseline probability of upside performance is only modestly above average, current market breadth indicators point to a potential strengthening trend. Given these signals, bullish investors may find added incentive to initiate a position. Disclaimer & DisclosureReport an Issue

I Tried Microsoft's New Free AI Video Generator: Here's How to Use It
Microsoft has a new, free tool to let you create AI-generated videos: the Bing Video Creator. When I tried it out just now, typing in a text prompt, in less than a minute the app generated a 5-second video of the Bing logo on an inflatable floating in a pool along with flamingo and donut floaties. There are some limitations -- for starters, the 5-second length. Also, for now, videos are only in a 9:16 vertical format; Microsoft says a 16:9 horizontal format will be available soon. Users have the option of making a "fast" or "standard" video. Fast, which is the default, is almost instantaneous, while Standard can take hours, according to the app. Fast requires the use of Microsoft Rewards points, which can be earned with Bing searches and Microsoft Store purchase, among other ways. This is a frame from the 5-second video that Bing Video Creator whipped up for me. In the video, the water ripped gently and the floats bobbed lightly. Created by Omar Gallaga using Bing Video Generator The feature is currently only on the Bing Search mobile app, but is coming to Windows desktops and Copilot Search, according to the company. It's powered by OpenAI's Sora video technology Bing Video Creator joins other major AI-driven video creation tools, including Sora from OpenAI's ChatGPT, Adobe Firefly, Google Veo, Runway and Meta Movie Gen. You can check out what Google's latest Veo 3 feature can do for those willing to pay for Gemini Ultra. The technology is moving quickly, with more and more options becoming available, some offering free access, others charging a fee or including them in AI-service subscriptions. How to use Bing Video Creator It's not instantly intuitive how to find or use the Video Creator, especially if you're not already using the Bing Search app. In the app, I accessed the feature by clicking on the box on the bottom right of the home screen. That brings up lots of apps within the app; look for "Video Creator" on the bottom left. There, you can create a still image or video by typing in a text prompt. Using the Fast option, which is the default, should generate the short video in moments. You can also type "Create a video of..." directly in the app's main search bar if you don't want to hunt for the feature. You can download and share the video. When I tried it out, I found the video was not very high quality and was not easy to download directly from the app. Sharing a link to the video creation and viewing it outside the app offers an option to download the full video. Microsoft says it will keep your video creations available for 90 days.

Photoshop Mobile Coming To Android Today — For Free With All Features
Adobe has just launched a mobile version of its Photoshop program for Android users, following the debut of Photoshop Mobile on iPhone in February 2025. The app launches in beta and, for now at least, every feature is included and the app is free. Photoshop comes to Android. The idea behind Photoshop Mobile, seen in the months it's been on the iPhone, is that it enables open-ended creativity, so that you can start Photoshopping wherever inspiration strikes – no more having a blinding flash of creativity on the subway, say, and being unable to do anything about it until you can get to your computer. Adobe says that creatives who previously had to carry their laptops everywhere in case they needed to make quick edits can now just do it on their phone. Putting a major program like Photoshop on a phone screen might make you think it's a lite version with few features, but Adobe has worked to ensure it's powerful and feature-packed. It's designed differently with no toolbar as you'll find on a desktop, instead focusing on tools at the base of the screen. Nevertheless, it includes image editing and design, as well as Firefly, which means you can employ tools like AI generative fill. In a behind-closed-doors press conference, an Adobe executive demonstrated how to use it, showing how easy it was to use. Core features such as layering, masking and blending are included. You can select objects on the phone using Tap Select, which detects what objects are in your project and by just tapping on one, it automatically selects it, overcoming fears that precise selection might be difficult on a phone. Additionally, Adobe Stock images, hundreds of thousands of them, are available in the app for users to make the most of. Tools like the Spot Healing Brush are accessible with a couple of taps, and the app seems smart enough to handle changes with the subtlety and dexterity you'd expect from the desktop version. For those new to Photoshop, there are tutorials in the app that explain how layers, selection and AI tools like Firefly work. Photoshop on Android (beta) is available now for devices running Android 11 or later, with 6GB RAM or more — 8GB or more is recommended. It's available in the Google Play Store and all the app's features are accessible for free during the initial beta period. It's expected that after this beta period, users will have to sign up for a $7.99 a month, or $70 a year subscription.
