Unusual stock option purchases in Chevron on Friday, day before the invasion...

Stinks to high heaven. Looks like the highest open interest is for Jan 16 $155 and 160 calls.

Over $273k+ in single-leg, OTM calls were bought on Friday as $CVX rallied more than $3 or 2.2% intraday.

Chevron is the only U.S. oil company still operating in Venezuela.
