CNBC Markets highlights a trading approach for the coming weeks that centers on using options to navigate a calendar that includes Nvidia earnings and renewed trade-war concerns.

According to CNBC Markets, the strategy is described as low-risk, designed to help investors express a view on near-term market moves driven by event-driven volatility.

CNBC World reiterates the same setup, pointing to the combination of major earnings and trade-war “tape bombs” as the main catalysts behind the trade idea.
