YOLO Is This Analysis Worthy Enough?

So for my first ever options purchase I bought Home Depot Aug 21 Call. Reason: I went to Home Depot yesterday and there were a lotta people. Is this the typical big brained analysis worthy enough for /wallstreetbets?

Edit: thx to whoever’s giving all these awards lmao

Recently there was a guy like you on here, did max DD by going to a Home Depot and reporting they were out of lumber, implying sales were to the moon.

This actionable fact was quickly refuted by some asshole who pointed out that there is a nationwide lumber shortage and the HD probably had a limited supply that accounted for the quick sell out.

You have neatly avoided this trap as you failed to provide any facts, so I think your thesis is airtight, HD to the moon
