You prolly know this, but some(all) options continue to trade after the market closes. My son had some options several years ago that closed at expiration bigly in the money. The options continued to trade that same day/evening, when the underlying company announced bad news. The options wound up costing him about 40k. That was news to him as well as me. (He coulda bought them back at close for next to nothing but he figured, “why bother”)

Just some info for peeps
