The shares of FedEx Corporation (NYSE:FDX) are trading at nearly three-year highs today after earnings, last seen up 14.2% at $292.78. The shipping firm reported fiscal fourth-quarter adjusted earnings of $5.41 per share on revenue of $22.11 billion, both of which beat Wall Street's estimates, and a 16% drop in capital spending.

As a result, FDX is seeing enhanced options activity, with 99,000 calls and 62,000 puts traded so far -- 15 times the volume that's typically seen at this point. Most popular is the September 300 call, followed respectively by the weekly 6/28 300- and 290-strike call, with new positions being bought to open at all three.

The security is on track for its best single-session percentage gain since June 2022, and has also broken above the $291 level that capped a mid-March, post-earnings surge on the charts. Looking more near-term, FedEx stock now carries a more than 16% year-to-date gain.

This means that over the last 10 weeks, options traders were overwhelmingly bullish.
