By Carly Wanna Verified|Bloomberg NewsVerifiedA trader who bet against Nvidia Corp. in the options market Tuesday appears to have made more than $6.5 million as shares of the AI darling slumped. Early Tuesday, 60,000 contracts of a $119/$115 put spread were bought for a total cost of about $1.23 million. The buyer was betting on shares dropping below $119 by Friday, while lowering their cost — and capping potential gains on a selloff — by selling the lower-strike option.

The backdrop is one of relatively low volatility in not just the S&P 500 Index but traditional havens such as the greenback, gold and Treasuries.
