Oracle Corp (NYSE:ORCL) stock is up 6.4% to trade at $183.74 at last check, one of the best stocks on the Nasdaq Composite (IXIC) this morning. The cloud company is joining OpenAI and SoftBank to create Stargate, a $500 billion joint venture, to boost artificial intelligence (AI) infrastructure investment in the U.S. The first data center will open in Texas. 

AI-related stocks like Nvidia (NVDA) and Arm Holdings (ARM) are enjoying a halo lift this morning, up 4.4% and 14.6%, respectively at last check. 

ORCL is on track for a sixth-straight gain, its longest win streak since August. The shares are now 64% higher year-over-year, bouncing off support at their upward-sloping 200-day moving average. 

There's a heavy call bias among options traders. At the International Securities Exchange (ISE), Cboe Options Exchange (CBOE), and NASDAQ OMX PHLX (PHLX), ORCL sports a 10-day call/put volume ratio of 3.57 that sits higher than 88% other readings from the past year.

Today is no different, with 106,000 calls changing hands in just the first hour of trading, volume that's 16 times the average intraday amount. The weekly 1/24 200-strike call is the most popular contract, with new positions being opened there.
